RFC2186 says nothing on IPv6:

Sender Host Address
      The IPv4 address of the host sending the ICP message. This field
      should probably not be trusted over what is provided by getpeer-
      name(), accept(), and recvfrom(). There is some ambiguity over
      the original purpose of this field. In practice it is not used.

As you suggested, we hace to leave uncanged the field at IPv6.
