Comment (by teor):

 These sorts of issues could be avoided if operators put their IPv6 policy
 first with accept6/reject6, and end it with accept6/reject6 *:*, then
 their IPv4 policy with accept/reject, then end with accept/reject *:*. Or,
 alternately, to have a single IPV4 and IPv6 policy, with accept/reject,
 ending in accept/reject *:*.

 We could update the manual with this advice.

 nickm, what do you think?
