FreeIPMI maintainer here.  Google alerts pointed me to this ticket.
IPv6 has been on my todo list forever, but lacked motivation to do it
b/c need appeared to be low.  Could original reporter create a ticket in
Savannah (http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/freeipmi) and Github
(https://github.com/chu11/freeipmi-mirror).  Thanks.

As an aside, support of IPv6 in the IPMI specification was released very
recently (2014 according to Wikipedia).  So unclear what original
reporter means by OpenIPMI IPv6 support since 2003.  Perhaps it was a
OEM specific extension added by a vendor?  Unclear to me if OpenIPMI has
supported "standard" IPv6 in newer versions.
