Hack <regress>/scripts/setup  and add a sed just after the ./configure that 
"patches" the config.h file to turn off IPv6.    If you then diff the 
original to the modified file and save it, if you ever pull a new regress 
source, you will have a nice patch file for re-inserting the hack.

The long term "correct" solution is to change <bacula>/autoconf/configure.in 
to correctly detect (or override incorrect detection) on HP machines or find 
the root of the problem.
