WebKit Apache configs only listen on IPv4 addresses, causing random timeouts
​https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37104

Apache 1.3 does not support IPv6, so remove the Listen [::1] directive
and add a warning about how that may cause flakiness on systems which
use Apache 1.3, but support IPv6.
