Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:5 nickm]:
 > Deferring to 0.2.6; fixing it has just as much risk for causing false
 positives.  (For instance, if you have a reachableaddresses policy that is
 accurate for IPv4, but you have no idea what IPv6 stuff your firewall
 blocks.)

 I think we can fix the false positives, see #9068 for details.
