Nope, this is everything from the startup:

Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59990]: [1-1] LOG: could not create socket for statistics collector: Protocol not supported
Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59993]: [2-1] LOG: database system was shut down at 2003-11-23 03:22:39 GMT
Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59993]: [3-1] LOG: checkpoint record is at 0/9B0B8C
Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59993]: [4-1] LOG: redo record is at 0/9B0B8C; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59993]: [5-1] LOG: next transaction ID: 534; next OID: 17142
Nov 23 03:30:58 pgsql74 postgres[59993]: [6-1] LOG: database system is ready

Is it easy to do a quick message change to state that it was the IPv6
socket that failed?
