 If no bindaddr is specified, it binds to both IPv4 and IPv6 wildcards (i.e.: 0.0.0.0 and ::).
 
+Warning about database format:
+astdb uses the ':' to separate fields. IPv6 addresses contain ':'. :(. So the processing routines have been updated to take of this, by using [] to enclose IPv6 addresses. And it should be fine. However, if an non-ipv6-enabled asterisk try to use a v6 populated astdb generated by the IPv6-enabled asterisk, you might end up with bizarre behavior. In such case, just delete the database entries and restart.

 TODO:
 - flag to disable/enable IPv6.
 - other channels to be ported to IPv6
