--------------------+------------------------------
In `get_local_listener` which is used by `tor_ersatz_socketpair`,
`sin6_family` is currently being set to `AF_INET` in the IPv6 case when
`AF_INET6` should be used instead.
This code was introduced in commit
9b24609af003cb79091e628c179cf617ff41aae7 from this past August, so this is
not a brand-new problem.
I tested this on my OpenBSD box by forcing an IPv6 socket to be used for
`tor_ersatz_socketpair` and running the test suite. There is a test in
the test suite that tests `tor_ersatz_socketpair`: it (of course) fails
using the current `AF_INET` code but it passes when using `AF_INET6`
instead.
PR to follow to change `AF_INET` to `AF_INET6` in the IPv6 case.
