Damn, yes. There are other ports though (such as the example I mentioned
earlier, with dns/tinydbs having a v6 patch, but sysutils/ucspi-tcp, the
tcpserver implementation that DJB recommends be used to run tinydbs,
doesnt come patched with v6, though a v6 patch is available at
http://www.fefe.de/ucspi/ucspi-tcp-0.88-ipv6.diff13.bz2 - the same site
from which the tinydns patch was taken.
note: This patch needs modification for FreeBSD, as it uses EPROTO, and
freebsd doesnt do EPROTO.
