ODBC and net.ipv6.bindv6only

[Sergei Golovan]

Hi!

Looks like odbc application has a bug which breaks it in case when
net.ipv6.bindv6only config variable is set to 1 (so, binding to inet6
socket doesn't bind to inet one as well).

In Debian GNU/Linux (using R14A, but R14B has the same odbc version 2.10.8):

% cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only
0
% erl
Erlang R14A (erts-5.8) [source] [smp:8:8] [rq:8] [async-threads:0]
[kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V5.8  (abort with ^G)
1> odbc:start().
ok
2> odbc:connect("DSN=postgres;UID=odbcuser;PWD=odbcpasswd",[]).
{ok,<0.39.0>}
3>

Another scenario:

% cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only
1
% erl
Erlang R14A (erts-5.8) [source] [smp:8:8] [rq:8] [async-threads:0]
[kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V5.8  (abort with ^G)
1> odbc:start().
ok
2> odbc:connect("DSN=postgres;UID=odbcuser;PWD=odbcpasswd",[]).
{error,connection_closed}

The latter timeout occurs even in case when "localhost" resolves to
both 127.0.0.1 and ::1.

Cheers!
