Cool, if you get this setup on Github we can finally merge Debian’s patches 
upstream.

FreeBSD also has at least one fairly major patch in their ports tree 
(compatibility with the FreeBSD tun/tap driver).

I also realized in testing last night that I missed one case where the WKPF is 
filtering packets, in the extract (6->4) path. The code for the 4->6 path is 
used during init as well, so that one is corrected.
