	Sorry for delayed response, and sorry for doing this here
	(I should have talked about this in KAME team earlier, I think I have
	noted about rcmd API  issues already to shin, before freebsd IPv6
	commits start)

	I suggest to defer committing rsh/rlogin related items, as there
	are reference to libc functions which we do not have consensus even
	among *BSD (not to mention linux camp, or any of vendor UN*X which may
	have those interfaces)  IMHO committing them causes more confusion.
	We do not really use rlogin/rsh these days, we can just use ssh.

	For realhostname2() I have no opinion as is freebsd only API
	(as I heard from shin).

	rcmd and bindresvport items are already committed, I think they
	shouldn't have been committed....  (for openssh port you can include
	bindresvport_af in "patches" directory)
	I would propose to back these out, like iruserok_af and bindresvport_af
	from the library.

	Items that would be deferred are rsh and rlogin related items, and
	those only (I believe).  most of other IPv6 services can be put
	and enabled.

	What I'm trying to say is that we need to get consensus on these API
	functions amoung at least *BSDs, and we should not be putting those
	before that.  I'm soliciting comments on IETF ipngwg mailing list
	so that I can get more comments.
