"Address family not supported by protocol" message in MRG
Issue
I noticed following warnings in our MRG-M 3.2 log files:
2016-02-09 13:48:25 [Network] info Listening to: 0.0.0.0:20202

It looks like the broker is trying to open a listener for the TCP/SSL ports on IPv6 ([::]) and fails doing so. As far as I know, our servers don't use IPv6.
