Well yes, and I posted an answer to this  question
http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2008-July/036994.html

Even though the archive seems to have lost the thread information somehow...

Sockets are used internally to communicate between erlang and c as
some odbc-drivers mess with standard fildescriptors rendering the
normal "erlang-port-program-communication" to malfunction. 
And this code is general to work with both ipv4 and ipv6 hence my
guess at what might be the problem.
