A lazy programmer is looking for an already existing implementation of
an Internet addresse type which will accept IPv6 as well as IPv4.

PostgreSQL's INET type does not handle IPv6 yet, see
<URL:http://developer.postgresql.org/todo.php&gt;.

OK, I found none, so here it is (the generic_addr library handles IP
addresses but is not dependant on PostgreSQL and can be used for other
purposes).

Feel free to add in contrib/
