Hello! I have polished the patch and it did get further testing. I've been asked to get one more approval from someone more knowledgeable about the IPv6 stack before being able to commit this code. It works fine and I'd like to commit it soon so it can get proper testing and avoid rotting as a patch. Since I am not src committer I'll need explicit approval to commit to the src tree. Thanks in advance!
