I tested this patch but it seams to only target issues about forwarding
IPv6 packets. OpenVPn options/commands like 'route' are anchanged and
still not able to handle IPvp addresses. This is since
openvpn_inet_aton() does only suppport dotted quads.

Or have I overlooked something?

Any plan about when should 2.1 be released?
