IPv6 support

[Jeremy T. Bouse]

	I would agree Ethan... I did have a look at the patch he had and it
seem'd he had patched the system to hold both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in a host
configuration and changed the display pages... This would be nice if you wanted
to set it up to support a host with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses... Currently
you have to have 2 seperate host entries... Although I didn't look too closely
at his patch (ie- I read it but didn't apply or try running with it) but might
be an idea to look at further... 

	After the 1.3.0 release of the plugins I have begun working on the IPv6
support that I had originally started working on during the beta release stage
but was held off until after the release... If anyone wants to help with testing
of it the configuration is the same with the exception of a '--with-ipv6'
configure option to enable IPv6 support... Not all of the plugins have been
updated yet but basic ones are working and need testing for portability... I
wouldn't recommend this for production systems yet, but any help with building
on older systems would be appreciated...
