The point of providing a platform is that developers can make certain
assumptions about available functionality. It's no longer reasonable to
treat IPv6 as an optional part of the internet, any more than it's
reasonable to consider IPv4 as optional. But if you don't want it,
simply don't build it.
I believe the ipv6 module is going to be built in soon anyway.
