Comment (by dgoulet):

 Same behavior here meaning I just want tor to listen on both v4 and v6 for
 the SocksPort so I guess that would be a matter of "SocksPort *:9050" (or
 9050 alone) to open two ports.

 The main use case I have is that for torsocks, we establish a socket to
 the SocksPort and sends it back to the application thus from that point on
 the app. can use it for any I/O ops. However, for IPv6, this means that
 the connection to the SocksPort *must* be a v6 family socket (AF_INET6)
 because that's what we are sending back to the application.
