If you didn't get "Cannot bind any address.", don't worry about the message;
please assume "error: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0" itself warning, 
not an error.

It bound ipv6 and failed to bind ipv4.
Ipv6 socket will also get ipv4 connections via ipv6 socket.

BTW, you cannot use sshd listening on ipv6 with glibc-2.2 on
linux-2.2.x kernel.

If you don't accept this, specifty 

    ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
    #ListenAddress ::

on /etc/ssh/sshd_config file by default.
