Thank you, Alex,

for notifying me. Although, I do not expect any noticable changes
regarding performance wether IPv6 is switched on or not. But it may
worth testing this - at least if IPv6 was compileable. I have made some
first steps, but it would be nice if someone could help continueing
those steps. ;-)

Also, it would be nice if Henrik could start with some comments he said
to have on these first IPv6 steps. :-)

ciao,
Xuân.
