[gentoo-user] installation: dual-family support for wget 1.9

[ari]

Since wget 1.9 supports either ipv6 or ipv4, but not both
simultaneously, new versions of gentoo cannot be seamlessly installed
with 'ipv6' in the USE variable.  That is, unless your gentoo mirror
supports ipv6 connections.

I wrote a patch for wget 1.9 to support both ipv6 and ipv4
simultaneously, depending on the resolved addresses.  This should solve
any wget-related problems with the install process.  The patch is
located at:

  http://www.episec.com/people/edelkind/patches/
  http://www.episec.com/people/edelkind/patches/wget/wget-1.9+ipvmisc.patch
  http://www.episec.com/people/edelkind/patches/wget/wget-1.9+ipvmisc.patch.bz2

Let me know if you experience any compilation or runtime problems
associated with this patch.

Additionally, you may modify your ebuild script to support all of this
this with the patch below.

It's already taken care of.  I submitted the patch to the wget-patches
list before sending my e-mail to the gentoo-user list.

 Have you considered pushing this upstream, to the maintainers of 
 wget..? It seems potentially quite useful.
