Yeah. It looks like the code for handling that has just fallen out somehow.
You'll have the same problem on a machine that has IPv6 but not IPv4. I think
the right thing to do is to make it non-fatal (maybe even not deserving of a
warning) if any individual socket creation fails, and to add a separate check
that at least one socket was successfully opened.

I don't see that here. It usually means you have some kind of version skew
between the kernel and/or glibc you are using at run-time and the one you
compiled against.
