Right; as far as 1001 goes the issue was a socket being held onto by "runtest"
from the 0564 testcase. I'll be committing a change that takes care to close it.
The dual-use detection still feels wrong to me. I'm tempted to only call the
special-case test when IPV6_V6ONLY has not succeeded - but on further
reflection I wonder why exim should prefer separate v4 / v6 sockets rather
than a dual-use one, when the OS supports dual? Maybe I'll try a testsuite
run in dual-mode to find out.
