incoming.conf and IPv6

Looks like there is something wrong: on my test server I had this line
in incoming.conf:

peer attila { hostname: attila.bofh.it }

and attila.bofh.it has 3FFE:1001:210:16:0:0:0:1 among its AAAA records,
but after upgrading attila.bofh.it to -CURRENT and starting to feed
articles from it to the test server via IPv6 it was not recognized
anymore and passed to nnrpd:

Jan 31 00:25:27 erode nnrpd[3940]: attila.bofh.it (3ffe:8171:10:16::1) connect
Jan 31 00:25:27 erode nnrpd[3940]: attila.bofh.it noperm ihave without permission

To make it accept articles I had to explicitly add the IP address:

peer attila { hostname: "attila.bofh.it, 3ffe:8171:10:16::1" }
