That's because those options are only used when opening a socket. The
user should configure ssh on their own. I'd suggest that they use the
~/.ssh/config file to set such options for particular hosts and/or all
hosts. I may add some code to ssh to warn and continue if -4 or -6 is
used with an external shell transport (to let the user know that it is
meaningless).
