That may be the case, especially since knemo etc. are add-on programs and
not part of the Trinity core.  IIRC, knemo in particular directly accesses
the kernel socket devices to grab information; it may not know how to
interpret the IPv6 data.

Compounding this problem is that many people (myself included) use IPv4
exclusively and do not have any IPv6 equipment set up for testing.
