This is easily reproducable.
ssh -X from machine A to B with normal IPv4
execute "xterm" display appears nicely.
ssh -X from machine A to B-6 with ssh started "sshd -6"
Connection is made, output from "-v -v -v" looks normal (to me)
$DISPLAY is set
execute "xterm" display fails with an error on opening $DISPLAY
