[FROG] BFD question

Hi,

We are new to this mailing list and to FRR. Currently we are looking into enabling and configuring BFD. We've run into an issue and can not start the BFD daemon; when running manually we get the error:

# /usr/lib/frr/bfdd -F traditional -A 127.0.0.1 --log-level debug
2020/08/05 16:36:14 emergencies: BFD: udp6-shop: socket: Address family not supported by protocol

IPv6 support is explicitly disabled via kernel boot parameter. Is there a way (that I missed in the documentation) to disable IPv6 altogether in bfdd?
We are running FRRouting v7.3.1 from the official repo.

Any help is much appreciated!

Best regards,
