	you want to look at RFC2292, and draft-ietf-ipngwg-2292bis.
	RFC2292 specifies how you can manipulate IPv6 extension headers
	(header chains between IP and TCP/UDP header, has similar role to
	IPv4 options), using ancillary data stream.  it gives you much higher
	flexibility and control, without additional address family
	(i think we shouldn't define address family for this).
