    yes, this is the former case.  other IPv6-ready applications (like
    telnet, ftp, ssh, whatever) uses IPv6 first when a name resolves to
    multiple addresses with mixed IPv6 ones and IPv4 ones.  the methodology
    is good for transition (otherwise, we'll keep using IPv4 and transition
    never happens even if dual stack servers get deployed...).
