Thanks.  On December 28th, I posted a patch to netdev@vger.kernel.org that
adds multicast support to the mv643xx driver.  I'll ping jgarzik
about it.

Oh, didn't find that patch yesterday.

The IPv6 changes look good.  Would you please re-submit these without
the multicast changes and with a Signed-off-by line?

Here it comes. However, IPv6 uses multicasting for address resolution
(replacement for ARP), so IPv6 doesn't work until the multicast patch is applied, too.

Thanks Wolfram.  I'll put it in my queue for testing and if all goes well,
I'll forward it to Jeff Garzik this weekend.
