Nope, that wasn't it but I you did start to get me thinking about the original Socket module. I checked the changelog of Socket6 and saw that they made the export of AF_INET6 optional in the Socket6 module I was building. It's optional because in perl 5.10 the Socket module was exporting AF_INET6 and then were would be a conflict with the Socket6 export. I removed the check making it 'optional' since I am using perl 5.82.

Here are the lines I changed in Socket6.pm: 
Original:
push @EXPORT, qw(AF_INET6) unless defined Socket::AF_INET6;
push @EXPORT, qw(PF_INET6) unless defined Socket::PF_INET6;
Fixed:
push @EXPORT, qw(AF_INET6);
push @EXPORT, qw(PF_INET6);

Now I don't get the error that AF_INET6 isn't defined I've tested that I can indeed communicate via SNMP using an IPv6 address. Hooray!
