Hi Guix!

Since commit d2b3400f79ffaed3357650307376ab69a7ec3b1b, ssh-daemon
fails to start when the system is using shepherd 0.9.1, but has no
support to IPv6. This is a result of shepherd trying to listen on a
IPv6 address without prior checking.

See https://issues.guix.gnu.org/55335.

PS: Yeah, I know, it's 2022 and in a few months it will be 2023 and
everyone's toilet should have its own IPv6 address by now and report
its users health conditions to a plethora of pharmaceutical
advertisers. Nonetheless, in this backward corner of the Earth there
is still one guix machine without IPv6, believe it or not! :D
