Escalated to Bugzilla from IssueTracker

Comment 7 David Miller 2005-10-05 19:20:36 EDT

I think it is not appropriate to merge in a fix for something which is
purely a standards compliance issue, so late in the RHEL3 release cycle.

If a customer has a real problem they were hitting due to this bug,
that would be a different issue.  This bug is purely being reported
because of a failure during the TAHI ipv6 compliance tests, and I do not
consider that a strong enough basis for inclusion this late in the product
life cycle.

We really need to draw the line somewhere.

Closing as WONTFIX in light of last comment.
