This issue causes (at least) 2 JCK test failures:

api/java_nio/channels/DatagramChannel/DatagramChannel.html#NetworkChannel[bindToAutoAddress_test]
api/java_nio/channels/DatagramChannel/DatagramChannel.html#NetworkChannel[bindRepeatedly_test]

The rest is copied from exclude request JCK-7300127:

--- start of quote ----

 In JavaSE7 (jdk/src/share/classes/sun/nio/ch/DatagramChannelImpl.java)
     public DatagramChannel bind(SocketAddress local) throws IOException {
           .....
                    InetSocketAddress isa;
                    if (local == null) {
                        isa = new InetSocketAddress(0); <= this will create IPv6 socket
                    } else {
                        isa = Net.checkAddress(local);

                        // only Inet4Address allowed with IPv4 socket
                        if (family == StandardProtocolFamily.INET) {
                            InetAddress addr = isa.getAddress();
                            if (!(addr instanceof Inet4Address))
                                throw new UnsupportedAddressTypeException();
                        }
                    }
                    SecurityManager sm = System.getSecurityManager();
                    if (sm != null) {
                        sm.checkListen(isa.getPort());
                    }
                    Net.bind(family, fd, isa.getAddress(), isa.getPort()); <= family is INET(IPv4)
                    localAddress = Net.localAddress(fd);
                }
            }

So they execute in IPv4 mode (family=INET) *AND* java.net.preferIPv6Addresses is TRUE,
then InetSoketAddress(0) constructor creates IPv6 address.
Later it tries to bind with IPv6 address on IPv4 mode.
