I merged and pushed that one now.

I'm not sure I follow here. Are you saying that the suggested patch should be
applied no matter what to build for Amiga? When it comes to doing things to
configure and adjusting the build for Amiga I'm all for that but we really
need either an Amiga user to do that and verify that it gets right, or even
better an Amiga build added to the autobuilds system so that others can verify
that the build goes through.

My guess is that you find that many other fellow Amiga hackers working on curl
these days... :-/

I pushed a fix for that just now, it'd be great if you tested it. Clearly the
number of users building curl without ipv6 support nowadays is shrinking as
you're the first to report this!
