So one will need to configure a dual stack host twice, once for IPv4,
and once for IPv6, and resort to fancy parent-host or check_multi
setups to not be alarmed twice if it's the _host_ being down, and not
one of the IP procotols?

In fact, not being able to handle the "more-than-one-IP-per-host" in a
non-complex way is one of the greatest beefs I have with Nagios (see
web server, or a host which serves multiple services on different IP
addresses).

Greetings
