Comment (by dgoulet):

 > Are you sure here?  We never get false negatives; only false positives.
 When we're asking "is address a dirauth" it's not so bad if we
 accidentally allow a tiny fraction of non-dirauths; only if we
 accidentally block a dirauth.

 Ah true!!! I always forgot it is the other way around. Ok then, we should
 simply use the address set for which we'll get the IPv6 for free it seems.
