I bet that a fix for the following exists, too: :)

[0]--(06:19:49)-(root@stefan)-(~)-> lsmod |grep -i ipv6
[1]--(06:22:33)-(root@stefan)-(~)-> modprobe ipv6
[0]--(06:22:38)-(root@stefan)-(~)-> lsmod |grep -i ipv6
ipv6                  117424  -1 
[0]--(06:22:46)-(root@stefan)-(~)->

usage count: -1
