Prefering IPv4 over IPv6 in case of a 6to4 tunnel makes sense for most applications. 6to4 is irratic end not very reliable. When browsing the web prefering IPv6 may lead to annoying delays because of fall backs to IPv4.
With binkd this is different. It is not a human that gets annoyed, it is a patient robot that does not mind first trying IPv6, failing and then trying IPv4 a minute later.
That is why it makes sense to leave the OS preference as is and override it in binkd's config when desired.
