I actually think the razor thin margins make it less likely.
If I'm not mistaken, one of the reasons firmware updates are not
available from a number of vendors/products, is because the small
boxes don't have enough ROM and/or RAM.
The ROM is to small to hold an extra stack (or other features) and/or
the RAM is to small to handle the connection tracking for the larger
addresses. Because people want a stateful firewall, right ?
In a very low end devices maybe. Mid range devices there is enough flash
and RAM. I have been using openwrt on various devices (asus, dlink,
lynksys) with ipv6 for more than 3 years.
