Apache fails to autostart

Hello,
In my zencart linux testbed, I configured the apache server to listen to the new IPv6-based socket adding the following line in httpd.conf:
Listen [::]:80
Listen 0.0.0.0:80
When linux boots, the http server fails to start giving the following:
[Tue Jul 05 11:20:21 2011] [crit] (EAI9)Address family for hostname not supported: alloc_listener: failed to set up spckaddr for ::
Syntax error on line 42 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Listen setup failed
That's credibly normal.
However, after the boot stage completed, the subsequent restart of the httpd succeeds without any error - but starting it manually still remains annoying.
I suspect that resources setup cause the IPv6 socket construction not being somehow feasible yet at boot time so to allow the httpd a normal start.
The distribution is Archlinux.
Thank you for any good advice.

Try making sure that:
- the IPv6 module is loaded before Apache (though this module should autoload)
- your IPv6 addresses are configured before Apache starts

Thanks for the hint.
I fixed my problem just modifying the default starting order of the httpd daemon in /etc/rc.conf.
Namely:
from
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond httpd mysqld sshd tincd)
to
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond mysqld sshd httpd tincd)
