In the code (7.12), I still see references to old API's like gethostbyname(..) etc. and no use of types like sockaddr_in6 etc. Searching over internet, I found the following mail thread talking about a patch for supporting IPv6: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00253.html

Here're the newer threads related to IPv6 support:
patch v1: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-05/msg00629.html
patch v2: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-06/msg00384.html .

AFAICT, previous attempts have not been finished. Maybe the current one will...
