Well, you have been told that your proposed new feature breaks IPv4 support with specific settings. I do not think that you are speeding up anything here by ignoring that fact. On the contrary.
It is obviously a corner case which is not deserved such a high priority (as high as a kernel panic or a compile error). bindv6only is default to be 0, I even wasn't aware of such sysctl until David pointed it out. So, please give me a reason why we should let such a corner case block the inclusion? I think there are still other such corner cases too (and maybe many), which neither you nor me are aware of.
