PLD people have made quite a nice ipv6 patch which appears to work without problems (unable to test server, but as xinetd can't handle other than ipv4 anyway, I don't think this will cause any problems..). The patch is attached. In addition autoconf/autoheader is needed. For a .src.rpm, check out http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/linux/ipv6/

Oops, this was added in 2.4.6-4 a few weeks back.
