Ups. Yes. This is 'deprecated' since a long time:

https://lists.ipfire.org/pipermail/development/2016-April/002046.html

"The --disable-ipv6 build option is now deprecated.
...
Squid-3.5.7 and later will perform IPv6 availability tests on startup in
all builds.

- Where IPv6 is unavailable Squid will continue exactly as it would
have had the build option not been used.

These Squid can have the build option removed now."

(The error I described in the post above was not IPv6 related.)

For my part we could either leave this enabled (default) or remove this
option. The warning message concerning the "BCP 177 violation" while
starting 'squid' stays the same - no matter if IPv6 was disabled or
enabled in 'configure'.
