% yes, it definitely needs to be a fixed number. in other words, IPv6
% link MTU should not be computed based on IPv4 PMTU (which is dynamic).
% PMTUD assumes that link MTUs are stable enough. by using IPv4 PMTU
% as basis for IPv6 link MTU, IPv6 link MTU will be affected by IPv4
% routing changes. it will have negative impact to IPv6 PMTUD.

for "cross-talk" to occur, is there a presumption of fate-sharing
on links? e.g. do you presume that a single link will always
support both v4 and v6?
