I'm doing some work on it, piece by piece as time allows, but there's no big concerted effort right now. In the 1.3 code base in development, it probably wouldn't take much work to enable clients to use IPv6 to talk to the KDC, but the KDC support will need more work. (We need TCP support there too, another big change.) The telnet code supports IPv6, and I've made a few changes to rlogin/rsh in that direction, but ftp needs quite a bit more work. There are new FTP protocol commands for supporting IPv6 addresses which we haven't got support for yet. Both kinit and klist should understand IPv6 addresses. At least, kinit will include local IPv6 addresses on platforms where I've worked out the code to find the local IPv6 addresses; Linux is the most recent addition there. (Not because it was hard, but because it's so gratuitously different.)
