Bug#268631: force preference of IPv4 over IPv6

Please do not do that in APT. It doesn't belong in APT, it should be
a global, system-wide preference. I don't feel like adjusting the
preferences of every single network program whenever I switch from
a good IPv6 to a bad IPv6 network.
Barak: if IPv6 is much slower than IPv4, please adjust the preferences
in /etc/gai.conf. Just say
precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100
