 On my IPv6-enabled network I have these lines in /etc/resolv.conf:

 nameserver 127.0.0.1
 nameserver 127.0.0.1
 nameserver ::1

 These entries to my own running name server.  At start-up tor logs this
 line:

 [warn] eventdns: Unable to add nameserver ::1: error 2

 I understand that IPv6 routing is not in place yet, but shouldn't Tor be
 OK with using a local IPv6 interface for name resolution?

 This is with Tor v2.1.29, a version that is shown in the Version drop-down
 list below.
