I understand. It does ipv6 DNS query using IPv4 transport. That has nothing to do with disabling IPv6 in the kernel, that's why "alias net-pf-10 off" does nothing. If you router does not support that, it's a bug in your router, not in the glibc, though I agree an option to disable IPv6 queries would be nice. This has already been reported as bug#435646, merging the bugs. -- .''`.
