#8 IPv6 support

[Vincent Riquer]

I intensively use IPv6 to reach m hosts at home from anywhere (using a tunnel when necessary), and my MPD streams to icecast, which is also IPv6-aware. But I have to ssh to my box in order to use ncmpc locally to control MPD. Therefore, I cannot use any of the great pympd features, such as queing.
I looked at the code, unfortunately I know too little of python to be able to do a patch myself.

I have modified a bit my patch in order to use non-blocking socket.connect(), the timeout is set according to the timeout user setting. It is now available there:
