 I've been working on upgrading my tor-relay to use IPv6

 For IPv4 I reject exiting, I'm on a single IP ftth network, exiting from
 this IP is /bad/ ;)

 However since IPv6 is now available in tor exiting on IPv6 would be a good
 strategy to benefit the network more.

 Hence configuration was added:
 ORPort [2A02:80C0:FF70:f600::2]:9001
 OutboundBindAddress [2a02:80c0:ff70:f600::2]
 IPv6Exit 1
 ExitPolicy accept6 *:*
 ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed


 Adding accept6 does not throw errors, without it atlas shows my node not
 allowing exiting of IPv6.

 However it seems that unfortunately and expectantly accept6 /also/ allows
 exiting of IPv4

 Config-file+build options can be provided if needed, contact me at
