Thanks for the tip.  We tried adding this to the local.conf file but
it failed with the following error:
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'glibc'
ERROR: glibc was skipped: missing required distro feature 'ipv6' (not
in DISTRO_FEATURES)

I'm guessing this is because the feature hasn't actually been added to
the build yet.  We tried instead adding it to our custom layer's
layer.conf file but got the same error.  Finally, we added it to our
core-image-minimal.bbappend file and the image compiled, however ipv6
was still present in the image.  Any idea on which file we should add
this to?  I know you said in our distro config, is that the layer.conf
file?  We've been using core-image-minimal as our base image and
appending/adding our own recipes to this.  Thanks again for your help.

Best,
Todd
