Dns.GetHostEntry assumes the first entry is IPv4

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to connect to localhost using BN#
2. Watch the SocketException fly

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to get an IPAddress in Dns.GetHostEntry(server).AddressList[0]
Instead, it's possible to get an IPv6

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
BN# Beta2 on Windows Vista

Please provide any additional information below.
It should be possible to iterate the array of IPAddresses and select the
first one with the AddressFamily as InterNetwork

Seems that this will happen on a machine with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses enabled, 
I'm
not sure if the burden should be on the server to have two listening sockets, 
or on
the Client to filter out by IPv4.

I'm leaning towards the server now though, since it assures forward 
compatibility
with IPv6.

Through more investigation, this is still a bug. TcpClient defaults to 
InterNetwork
as the AddressFamily, so even if I updated my server with IPv6 support (Created 
a
separate listener) it still will fail when the DNS tries to resolve.
