| Subject: | POE::Wheel IPv6 test failures on Cygwin |
Socket6.pm will install on Cygwin even though it is not currently capable of doing IPv6. The following patch to tests/30_loops/00_base/wheel_sf_ipv6.pm skips these tests on Cygwin if Socket6 is installed. With this patch, all the IPv6 are skipped if Socket6 is installed.
