Bug 22866

FreeBSD-CURRENT now seems to have some similar code to that in the
submitted patch applied.  Is there still a problem?

                Cheers,

                Mark.

My apologies, I misread the code.  I don't think this issue has been
addressed.

It may be more effective to take it up directly with the KAME folks.

		Cheers,

In fact, you are right. Mods done in netinet/ip_output.c and
netinet6/ip6_output.c betwwen 4.5 and 4.6 on replacing cached routes
solve most of the problem. 

There are still problems in the managment of socket wrt IPv4mapped addresses
but the most annoying one (dirty route structures which cannot be corrected)
is solved.
As most of this suggested patch is mow irrelevant, I suggest that one should
close this patch, and I shall submit new bugs reports with proposed patches
for the problems I found on the new version.

Sincerly

As I said in my previous follow-up, I have submitted 3 bugs reports (to
FreeBSD and KAME)
about the current (FreeBSD4.6) state of this half corrected bug
So one should consider this report as closed, and look to reports:
kern/40558,  kern/40561,  and kern/40563
