      This bug is for tracking purposes only and relates to Solaris 8
      IPv6/kernel bug 4418865.

      Multicast.setInterface will fail on Solaris 8 if IPv6 isn't enabled on the
      interface. The exception is :-

      java.net.SocketException: IPV6_MULTICAST_IF failed (interface has IPv4 address only?)

      setInterface is okay if run with java.net.preferIPv4Stack property set.
