Thank you for your report. This is a more fundamental problem with the
IP-address handling in phpBB 2.0.x. Since upstream has declared the 2.x
branch as "nearly dead" I don't think they will be fixing it - and I also
don't think it would be worthwhile to overhaul how the IP code works for a
branch that has probably Lenny as its last release.
Of course you're welcome to submit a patch for it, or apply a local
workaround. But with phpBB 3.x around the corner, with this issue fixed, and
IPv6 still being quite rare, we are not interested into refactoring this code
base.
I'm sorry, and I hope you will find a way around this.
