Quick fix is to put the right IPv6-adresses into pg_hba.conf, like I did.

The main problem is, that postgresql does not work out of the box.

If it is possible postmaster should do some mapping from IPv4-entries in
pg_hba.conf to IPv6-entries.

I did not switch IPv6 on. It was on after standard installation.
