I am fine with that! Looks better that the long version.

I just posted my local additions that I made to glibc to make my software work. It was not intended to be a overall research of what might be missing regarding IPv6. There will a lot more we can put into icmp6.h! Right now I don't have the time to dig further into this but later this year I can propose a new version icmp6.h with all that stuff carefully researched.
However, the first version of my software will be shipped with my local
diff. I hope we soon have more useful structs and defines in icmp6.h
even though it might be incomplete.
Cheers
Dan
