Switching gears and leaving the discussion of ipv6 fragments to mention 
nat66. A lot of people have been talking about nat66. I could be wrong but 
I don't think it can handle nat66. I need to do some testing to verify 
this. I remember reading on sourceforge that it was on your todo list. It 
doesn't look like it was checked off as being completed.
