RFCs now mandates software to support both IPv6 and IPv4 and v6 has to
be preferred when available.

For operational purposes yes, one protocol is enough, but we need to
support both.

No, it´s probably harmless. Does it create any runtime problem? I guess
that the kernel ipv6 module is not loaded and bind fails.

Just try it, if you are not using v6, specifying -4 should be enough.
