Does this work with IPv6?  My impression (backed up by a quick look at
the net/ source) is that FREEBIND is an IPv4 thing.

It seems it might be better to just deal with systemd and only bind network
addresses after the network is up.

How does the NFS server handle things?  Presumably the same issue exists
there, and I would hope NFS serving works with systemd.
