It doesn't.
Every new installation I disable system wide IPv6, sometimes as Andres 
described, sometimes look in /etc/sysconfig directory, sometimes using 
YaST and if the system is set with disabled IPv6, than anyway I have to 
change Firefox default because it doesn't use system settings:
http://en.opensuse.org/Disable_IPv6_for_Firefox .

It is probably good for some intranets where is used, but most of the 
Internet still uses IPv4.
