There is nothing wrong with that. Nothing breaks when IPv6 gets
enabled.
 

I beg to differ. BIND9 broke for me entirely because it was looking to
connect via IPV6 to DNS servers that it couldn't reach,.

It should have tried IPv4 then. Since there are gazillion possible
misconfigurations that break these features of IPv6, more in-depth
debugging or analysis is not possible at this place. I apologize for
that.

Or systemd.

 
No init script broke because there was another program invoking it.
 

Well yes, some did.

Misconfiguration of services is not systemd's fault. Things like that
happen.
