Odd... those should be eliminated based on the flags in /proc/net/ 
if_inet6, or perhaps some flags in getifaddrs if your system has it.   
I haven't run into it on our 2.6.9 kernels under RHEL 4.

Also any non-local IPv4 addresses should've been used as well.

Were you disconnected from the network at the time you did this?  If  
you have no addresses assigned (excluding loopback and link-local  
addresses), the KDC won't find any addresses to bind to, and won't  
start.
