MySQL IPv6 support

Hello all,
One simple question: Does MySQL support IPv6?

Altough IPv6 is properly configured on a test Linux machine, MySQL does not listen on the defined IPv6 interfaces.

Telneting on the IPv4 address, port 3306 results in an answer from MySQL while doing the same on the IPv6 address does not yield any result.

Comments:
ip-skip-networking has been commented out in my.cnf
telnet to IPv4, port 3306 works ok.
telnet to IPv6, port 3306: We can see the first two packets: Syn / Ack. But th econnection is refused.

We have tried telneting on another IPv6 device: it works correctly.

So, has anyone been successful using MySQL with IPv6 thus far, without applying any unsupported or unoffical patches?

Is IPv6 enabled in any of the currently available RPMs (5.027, 5.1.X or 5.2.3-Falcon)?

Best regards,
Patrick
