It's defined as 1 despite the lack of IPV6 support in the kernel.
Running configure I see

Checking for IPv6 Networking support...
checking for library containing getaddrinfo... none required
checking for library containing gai_strerror... none required
checking for library containing getnameinfo... none required
checking for gai_strerror... yes
checking for working getaddrinfo... yes
checking for negative error codes for getaddrinfo... yes
checking for working getnameinfo... yes
checking for sockaddr_in6... yes
checking if APR supports IPv6... yes

so I guess APR only does compile time checks. I can use
--disable-ipv6 to disable APR's IPV6 support.
