0.3.8-dev on Raspberry pi B+
ipfs daemon gives:

Initializing daemon...
ERRO[22:54:27:000] error from node construction: 1: listen tcp6 [::]:4001: socket: address family not supported by protocol
module=cmd/ipfs
Error: 1: listen tcp6 [::]:4001: socket: address family not supported by protocol

workaround: delete ipv6 line from swarm section of config file

ideally this would not happen. ipfs init could check the OS stack and avoid adding the ip6 addr in that case.

Not listening on ipv6 anymore, dynamically enabling it is tracked in #5905
