It would be really good to have a working patch with IPv6.

Herbert Poetzl will you consider patching for us?

The other possible "revert the conflicting upstream commit before  
applying the linux-vserver patch" we could also consider. I have  
absolutely no idea what that would do in terms of IPv6, though it  
would seem that we've all been running without it for years, and that  
it adds a feature for corner case of specific IPv4 mapping that we  
could live without.

What do people think?

Cheers,
Ben
