Not sure if it's related, but portsnap5 is also IPv6 at this writing:
royce@mycroft:~$ for suffix in `seq 1 7`; do host
portsnap${suffix}.freebsd.org; done
portsnap1.freebsd.org has address 204.109.56.116
portsnap2.freebsd.org has address 208.83.221.214
portsnap3.freebsd.org has address 212.101.4.241
portsnap4.freebsd.org has address 93.158.155.199
portsnap5.freebsd.org has address 204.9.55.80
portsnap5.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4978:1:420::cc09:3750
portsnap6.freebsd.org has address 149.20.53.40
portsnap6.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:3:ffe0::40
Host portsnap7.freebsd.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Note also that the update and portsnap servers appear to be relatively
independent of one another, with only the "5" server sharing the same
IP:
royce@mycroft:~$ for suffix in `seq 1 7`; do host
portsnap${suffix}.freebsd.org; done
portsnap1.freebsd.org has address 204.109.56.116
portsnap2.freebsd.org has address 208.83.221.214
portsnap3.freebsd.org has address 212.101.4.241
portsnap4.freebsd.org has address 93.158.155.199
portsnap5.freebsd.org has address 204.9.55.80
portsnap5.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4978:1:420::cc09:3750
portsnap6.freebsd.org has address 149.20.53.40
portsnap6.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:3:ffe0::40
Host portsnap7.freebsd.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
