Eating our own debug dog food may help (someone else, not me in IPv6 land, I've barely come to grips with this new-fangled IPv4 stuff).

kenj@vm00:~$  pminfo -Dall -v -h '[::1]'
__pmConnectPMCD: trying __pmAuxConnectPMCDPort(::1, 44321) ...
auxconnect.c:__pmGetAddrInfo: getaddrinfo(::1, ...) -> -9 Address family for hostname not supported
auxconnect.c:__pmHostEntFree(hostent=0x1507780) name=(nil) ((null)) addresses=(nil)
auxconnect.c:__pmGetAddrInfo(::1) -> NULL
auxconnect.c:__pmAuxConnectPMCDPort(::1, 44321) : hosterror=0, ``Resolver Error 0 (no error)''
__pmConnectPMCD(::1): pmcd connection port=44321 failed: No route to host
pmNewContext(1, [::1]) -> -113, curcontext=-1
pminfo: Cannot connect to PMCD on host "[::1]": No route to host

So for some reason ping6 works with ::1 and ssh ::1 works, but the way we're calling getaddrinfo() seems to be failing and it is all downhill in libpcp from there.

ps. this host is running an old, but still supported version of Ubuntu, namely 12.04
