Keep in mind I'm not the main developer for Iperf, but I am not aware of
any problems with 1.7 IPv6 support affecting IPv4. I know that Iperf has
had significant changes since 1.1 and 1.2.. so I would just give it a try
or have your colleague see if he or she can reproduce the problem with
1.7. If you still have the problem with 1.7, please let me know and I can
investigate. (I would need specifics as to exactly what affects you were
seeing, etc).

No problem. Let me know if the fix doesn't work for you or causes
problems.
