Forgive me if this has been discussed already, but should applications
be able to use v4 mapped multicast addresses the same way they use
v6 multicast addresses?  I have been working under the assumption
that draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2553bis-00.txt intends just this, but
there is at least one popular implementation that doesnt support
this (yet).

And if v4 mapped multicast addresses are allowed by the basic API,
shouldn't IN6_IS_ADDR_MULTICAST() return !0 for v4 mapped multicast
addresses?


thanx,
brad
