Hmm, weird.

There are only two setsockopt calls in cyrus-imapd. Here they are:

$ grep -A 2 setsockopt master.c
        r = setsockopt(s->socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR,
                       (void *) &on, sizeof(on));
        if (r < 0) {
--
            r = setsockopt(s->socket, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_V6ONLY,
                           (void *) &on, sizeof(on));
            if (r < 0) {


I can't see how this could set SO_BSDCOMPAT.

Here are also the relevant defines from /usr/include/asm/socket.h and
/usr/include/(bits|linux)/in.h:

#define SOL_SOCKET      1
#define SO_REUSEADDR    2
#define SO_BSDCOMPAT    14
#define IPV6_V6ONLY             26
IPPROTO_IPV6   = 41

So this is probably a bug somewhere, but I doubt it is a bug in cyrus-imapd.
