The problem is not that IPv6 is enabled, it's that IPv6 is getting loaded AND NOT ENABLED. It's not enabled in /etc/sysconfig/network, so none of the init scripts are running on it, but some application is making explicit reference to the protocol family so the ipv6 module is loaded and not properly configured. So you've got a protocol family loaded and not properly configured. Geee... Guess I'm not surprised at the problems people are having with THAT. > At least some combination of these three work because it fixed mine. (I > have all 3 lines in place) The solution is to kill the protocol family in modprobe.conf (which does NOT prohibit someone from explicitly loaded the module, that only prohibits the kernel module loader from automatically loading it) or, possibly, to turn "NETWORKING_IPV6=yes" (which will result in it being properly configured, which MAY solve the DNS delay problems).
