Yes I think that's OK because:
   a) The alternative breaks all backwards migration
   b) This doesn't casuse any problem for forward migration

There is another way, we could add a subsection that's sent whenever
we use non-IPv4; that would (probably) fail noisily on a backwards
migration to an old setup.  But IMHO it's not worth it in this case
given how rare a backwards migration of an IPv6 slirp connection on
something other than Linux is.
