New description:

 This code is wrong for at least two reasons:
 * it should also unset BEGIN_FLAG_IPV6_OK, and
 * ~~it's way too early in the function: we might end up resolving an
 IPv6-only hostname, learn that it doesn't match our exit policy, and send
 the address back in the REASON_EXITPOLICY RELAY_END cell~~
 ~~(See https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/tor-spec.txt#n1436
 )~~
 (Apparently this works anyway.)

 {{{
   if (! options->IPv6Exit) {
     /* I don't care if you prefer IPv6; I can't give you any. */
     bcell.flags &= ~BEGIN_FLAG_IPV6_PREFERRED;
     /* If you don't want IPv4, I can't help. */
     if (bcell.flags & BEGIN_FLAG_IPV4_NOT_OK) {
       tor_free(address);
       relay_send_end_cell_from_edge(rh.stream_id, circ,
                                     END_STREAM_REASON_EXITPOLICY, NULL);
       return 0;
     }
   }
 }}}

Comment:

 These are fixed as part of #21311, as they touch the same code.

 Can we get this in 0.3.0?
