Work around new Debian IPv6 idiocy

Description

Listening on :: no longer means you're listening on both IPv6 and IPv4 on at least Debian testing, and surely on other systems too one day or the other.

Apparently there's a sysctl to fix it but who knows how cross-platform it is. I guess the best way out is to just have two listening sockets.

Definitely should fix this before the next release.

More info in ​http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/10/msg00541.html

The sockctl is documented in ​http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3493#section-5.3

BitlBee already converts IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses to something readable for years.
