Comment (by axeld):
addrconfig() only tests if you can create a socket for the specified
family, not if there is an address configured. It will succeed on Haiku if
the IPv6 module is installed.
Not sure if that's supposed to fail on other platforms, but such a socket
is also used to configure an address in the first place (same as at least
the BSDs, IIRC).
