As of commit 056564f6a (Add new exit value to indicate concurrency issues), the IPv4 iptables binary returns exit status 4 to indicate that the kernel returned EAGAIN when trying to update a table. But ip6tables still returns exit status 1 under the same circumstances. Update ip6tables to bring it in line with iptables behavior.
