Yes you are, check your trace: The sendto address and port are the same
as the bound address.

While a datagram socket, it does not match the socket()/bind() above.
An INET6-domain datagram socket would be listed as udp6 here. Are you
sure you're tracing the right VM and are looking at the right thread?
If so, is the incriminated traffic actually going through socket #20?
Is src.getSocketAddress() actually returning an IPv6 address?
SocketAddress is an abstract class. For my lack of Java knowledge: are
there any automatic type promotions on the Java side?
What's the Java code for binding to the socket and fetching the query
packet?

That is prohibited, so there isn't IPv6 -> IPv4 routing. All IPv6
traffic remains in the IPv6 domain.

You mean the JRE.

The 2001:something is your local address. If you bind to 3800::
something that won't work. You couldn't bind an IPv4 address of
10.9.8.7 on this interface either.

This iface has no addresses at IP level at all.

Other than that, looks reasonable. There are link-local IPv6 addresses
on igb0 and lo0, and there is a global IPv6 address on igb0. There is a
routable IPv4 address on igb0, and the loopback address on lo0. That's
OK, but an IPv6 bind could only ever use an address from
2001:4db0:20:2::/64, not 3800.
Are you sure you're using the right address in bind()? It specifies the
local sender address for transmitted datagrams...

This is a bug in truss it seems, Bjoern said he's gonna have a look at
it. Doesn't matter what you bind to it always reports this value in the
truss output.

All mute as the Bjoern found and fixed the issue, it was a bug in the
kernel fixed by:-

Again, truss isn't showing the correct results, confused me too ;-)
Possibly another bug in sockstat / netstat as well, when the socket is a
IPv6 socket bound to an IPv4 address maybe it should indicate this e.g.
udp6-4 instead of either udp4 or udp6; alternatively maybe udp6 + a IPv4
address is enough to indicate this, but that could cause confusion.
Thanks for looking at this, appreciated :)
