Comment:

 I split off the ioctl AF_INET6 modifications to #17952, they're lower
 priority as they only affect some obscure platforms.

 As discussed on IRC, if the function is passed AF_UNSPEC, it expects IPv4
 and IPv6 addresses back. So some functions might need to be called twice
 with AF_INET and AF_INET6 if they don't accept AF_UNSPEC. This also
 includes #17951 - the socket hack should be called twice with AF_INET and
 AF_INET6 if AF_UNSPEC is passed.

 Moving to 0.2.8 because this is a correctness patch.
