However, I'm not yet willing to accept the claim that ipv6 cannot be
used as a module unless the rest of the system is painstakingly
crafted to close any races between addrconf, sysctl and other
IPv6-using processes. That strikes me as far too brittle.
Most distributions are moving to building ipv6 statically into the
kernel, largely because of the issues described here.
