Thanks. I must admit that I'm a bit overwhelmed by this patch. Several questions: * Would you be willing to take a look at the sources of Wget 1.8 or, preferrably, the CVS sources? Handling of hosts is a lot cleaner than it was in 1.7. * Is all the additional configure magic really necessary? Checking for all the different IPv6 stack types? "inria kame linux toshiba v6d zeta"? I really don't want to complexify Wget with the support for ancient systems with buggy IPv6 implementations that noone bothers to use any more anyway. * If the patch were applied, would you be willing to test changes made to Wget CVS source in the course of maintenance? I don't have IPv6 handy to test things, so I might need help.
