[Twisted-Python] Queries about connecting to a XML-RPC server over IPv6

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a local XML-RPC server with IPv4 *disabled*. Here is my script:

from twisted.web.xmlrpc import Proxy
from twisted.internet import reactor

def printValue(value):
    print repr(value)
    reactor.stop()

def printError(error):
    print 'error', error
    reactor.stop()

proxy = Proxy('http://localhost6:8000')
proxy.callRemote('my_proxy_method').addCallbacks(printValue, printError)


When I run it, i get "No route to host: 101, Network is unreachable".

However, 'curl -6 localhost:8000' succeeds. What could be going on here?
I am using Twisted-12.2 on Fedora 19.

Thanks for any insights.

Best,
Amit.
