Public bug reported:

When there are both IPv4 and IPv6 subnets on the public network, the
port that a floating IP allocates there gets assigned addresses from
both subnets. Since a floation IP is a pure IPv4 construct, allocating
an IPv6 address for it is completely useless and should be avoided,
because it will for example block removing the IPv6 subnet without a
good reason. Seen in Pike as well as in master.
