[Python-Dev] -DINET6 in Makefile

What's the reasoning behind putting -DINET6 into the default
compiler options of the generic Makefile ?

I'm just asking because such a define will be inherited by
all extensions being compiled with distutils and the Makefile.pre.in
setup process... sounds like trouble if you ask me.

Shouldn't the define be placed into the pyconfig.h file or
only in those extensions which need it ?
