Looking through the code in termpkg-3.3/libtn/ and termpkg-3.3/termnet/
there should be no possibility whatsoever that 'termnet' itself would be able to use IPv6 for communications during a session with live socket pairs, so the previous message must be a false negative! However, I have spent the evening now in patching both of the above two directories, and I do arrive at provably working IPv6 code. I have tested and verified this against netkit-telnetd listening at '::1', completing a dozen login sessions. The code in termpkg-3.3/termnetd/ for the server side is very much more difficult to patch for IPv6 support, so it will take me an, as of yet, indeterminable amount of time before I can report back with a complete patch for the entire package termpkg_3.3.
