 * BUGS
 
+** Ange-ftp should ignore irrelevant IPv6 errors:
+
+Message-Id: <4121-Tue23Mar2004165249+0100-piet@cs.uu.nl>
+From: "Piet van Oostrum" <piet@cs.uu.nl>
+To: emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org
+Subject: Ange-ftp can't deal with IPV6/IPV4 fallback
+
+Symptoms:
+
+C-x C-f /ftp.nluug.nl:/
+
+The problem is that the DNS first gives an IPV6 address. However our
+router doesn't do IPV6. Ftp then falls back to IPV4:
+
+ftp> open ftp.nluug.nl
+Trying 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36...
+ftp: connect to address 2001:610:1:80aa:192:87:102:36: No route to host
+Trying 192.87.102.36...
+Connected to ftp.nluug.nl.
+
+Ange-ftp chokes on the `No route to host' message and doesn't look any
+further. 
+
+I think in the near future we will see more of this problem, so it might be
+time to make anfe-ftp more intelligent.
+
