If it helps, the ipv4 ftp helper causes a lot of problems. 
People can't get it to work, because they can't follow the 
instructions. ftp is hard to secure and I think it should be 
done on a separate single machine. But if you have reasons 
to write an ipv6 ftp helper, don't let me stop you. I 
personally don't know important it is to have load balanced 
ftp. How does ftp.gnu.org and ftp.kernel.org handle their 
load? Since it's read-only, wouldn't failover handle it?

Now that I think if it. ibiblio.org, just up the street from 
me, runs on LVS. So maybe load balanced ftp is useful.
