I think Ezio and Martin have access to the machine, but not necessarily
root access; and, furthermore, the problem might be somewhere else on
the network.

I think the best short-term measure is to disable the IPv6 resolution
for bugs.python.org. Otherwise people will run in the same issue over
and over again.
