It *is* made dynamicly. That tiny test program is compiled, linked and run.
If the funtion socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, 0) returns negative, the machine
is considered not IPv6-enabled.

As Troy told us, this might be because of a lack of a NETWORKING_IPV6="yes"
line in the /etc/sysconfig/network file.

(Not that I have a line like that on my IPv6-enabled host...)
