I see your point

but ipv6 as DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC ends in DISTRO_FEATURES as well
DISTRO_FEATURES ?= "alsa bluetooth ext2 irda pcmcia usbgadget usbhost
wifi nfs zeroconf pci ${DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC}"
so I'm fine with ipv6 in DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC

this way I can expect *libc to be tweaked by DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC only
and the rest of image by whole DISTRO_FEATURES (including libc-* flags
and ipv6 from DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC)
