I tried to solve the problem with a modification of the sshd startscript. If
it this works well, I can commit the patch to the maintainer to include it
and to have a easy way to setup ipv6 with the ssh package of the main pool.

I created a file sshd located in /etc/default, which is attached.
Also attached is a patch for /etc/init.d/ssh. The only prob is, the value is
only working with "ssh start" and not with "start [reload|restart]" and I
dont realy get why. Help is welcome. ;)

Regards, Jan.
