I've just made cvsup.ie.freebsd.org available over IPv6 by doing port
forwarding. This means that if you can convince your cvsup client to
do IPv6 (using port forwarding from 127.0.0.1?) then you should be
able to connect to it using IPv6. I've included an example of how
to use it below, usint the nc6 port.

% fgrep host src-supfile
*default host=127.0.0.1
% tail -1 /etc/inetd.conf
cvsup stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/nc6 nc6 cvsup.ie.freebsd.org 5999
% head -1 /etc/hosts.allow
cvsup: all EXCEPT 127.0.0.1 : deny
% cvsup src-supfile
