Alfred, a month has passed without any acceptance or reject
on this matter. I will not proceed on IPv6 for 'syslogd'
until the present bug has been mended. We owe it to our
users to display the incorrect code. Already next patch
from me will replace the code involved here, as well as
much of its vicinity.

The patch has now been recalculated.

Regards,
  Mats
