The merges to res_init.c, res_send.c and getaddrinfo.c before merging latest KAME issue is aready MFCed. Though, the change to getaddrinfo.c is slightly big, it corrects the behavior of mapped address and saves IPv4 users. I believe the problem of DNS IPv6 transport support was gone and I've never heared the problem anymore. DNS IPv6 transport is desireble for IPv6 users to live under IPv6 only environment. I wrote IPv6 code for installer and intend to commit it for 4.1-RELEASE. It supports installation under IPv6 only environment. It requires DNS IPv6 transport. I think other parts are no problem for IPv4 users. There are some changes which are not merged into 5.0-CURRENT yet. I think such parts are rather experimental and shouldn't be merged in this time. -- Hajimu UMEMOTO @ Business Solution System Development Div., Hitachi Ltd.
