Dual mode in XP SP2?   

The MSDN guide on transitioning an application to IPv6 talks about dual 
sockets required on XP SP1 and Server 2003, and dual layer available on 
Vista.  What about XP SP2?  Is there a reason why the article skips mention 
of SP2?

It's probably older than SP2. SP2 does not support mapped addresses. Two
sockets are needed as in SP1 and 2003.

It' s not dual sockets but dual stacks compared to Vista dual IP layer. But 
this is a high level view so it is imprecise.

XP SP2 IPv6 support is better or on par with XP SP1.
