When using this feature with a ~/.ssh/config file of:

host test
  addressfamily inet
host *
  addressfamily any

host test has both an A and an AAAA record in DNS, but the v6 connection is
down. This is why I'd like to force the inet addressfamily.  It seems that the
host * entry wins.  When looking at the source, it seems like addressfamily is
global, rather than per host. This is inconsistent with the other options, no?

As a workaround, using bindaddress works as expected, and is per-host (in the
Options structure)
