I've finally gotten around to doing the same now, thanks for the heads up :)

Thanks a lot for helping out! I'm seeing the same issue here when
running on Vista:
$ ./git-daemon.exe --base-path=/c/Users/Erik/src/ --export-all
error: PeekNamedPipe failed, GetLastError: 1
[3656] Poll failed, resuming: Invalid argument
error: PeekNamedPipe failed, GetLastError: 1
[3656] Poll failed, resuming: Invalid argument
...
If I hack the poll()-emulation to never enter the PeekNamedPipe
code-path seems to make it work with IPv6 here, but this is obviously
not the correct solution as it breaks pipe-polling:

I'm not very familiar with poll(), but if I understand the man-pages
correctly it's waiting for events on file descriptors, and is in our
case used to check for incoming connections, right? If so, I see three
possible ways forward: (1) extending our poll()-emulation to handle
multiple sockets, (2) change daemon.c to check one socket at the time,
and (3) using select() instead of poll().
(1) seems like the "correct" but tricky thing to do, (2) like the
"easy" but nasty thing to do. However, (3) strikes me as the least
dangerous thing to do ;)
For (1), there's also a WSAPoll() function in Windows, but I'm not
sure how to figure out if an fd is a socket or a pipe. There's also
WaitForMultipleObjects.
Here's a quick stab at (3). It seems to work fine under Windows. Not
tested on other platforms, though.
