OK, at your suggestion, IPv6 addresses will appear in pg_hba.conf, even
if we don't support IPv6.

However, the server log messages stating an IPv6 socket was not made is
only printed if the binary supports IPv6. The message seems to be a
compromise between those who wanted a separate IPv6 GUC/flag and those
who wanted it to silently fail on IPv6.
