As noted in (msg06105), in a number of messages I stated or implied
that ILNP requires upgrades to applications.  This was a mistake.
ILNP works with non-upgraded IPv6 applications.

Still, since AFAIK most applications only work with IPv4, ILNP would
require upgrades to most applications.

which implies that all CEE architectures require upgraded
applications.  I now understand that GSE, GLI-Split and ILNP work
with non-upgraded IPv6 applications.
