If you'd like to take a gander, the 4.x branch has IPv6 testing up and 
working. You can download a per-night tarball at 
https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tarball?path=/branches/4.x-master

I still have some pending patches for forward port from the 
soon-to-be-released-this-week 4.3.28 beta.
