3.  Gossip crashes immediately at started/

Expected Results:

Gossip should just run with IPv6.


How often does this happen?

Everytime starting gossip

If there is no local ipv6 address, it works fine.
If there is no DNS record, then works fine.

Actually, this isn't as bad as it seems.


The crash is because the server was not listening for IPv6.

But, gossip still crashes when an attempt is made to connect to a server where AAAA record is present, but server is not listening on IPv6.
