Yeah, that looks like that is it.

I can't find an updated image for the dev-board. I'm kind of stuck
with what I have.

At first blush, I thought to test Perl and disable self tests if IPv6
was not available. That seems to be a bit heavy handed since that
throws out the hundreds of other tests that work as expected.

Another option is to configure Wget with --disable-perl so the self
tests pass. That seems to cripple Wget when Wget is not really the
problem.

Might it be possible for Wget to determine if the IPv6 test can be
run, and only run the test if supported by Perl? (It is not a high
priority for me since I can explain the cause and move forward with an
install).
