With IGMP version 1 and 2 it is possible to inject a unicast report to a client
which will make it ignore multicast reports sent later by the router.

The fix is to only accept the report if is was sent to a multicast or unicast
address.  Fix from David Stevens at IBM and will be made upstream shortly.

This is apparently an accidental dup entry of bug 174808.
