Hi David, thanks for your patch ... can I ask you for a little bit of additional work ... I am almost done with a new version of SmokeTrace which will provide access to multiple traceroute implementations, since I do not have ipv6 here, something like your patch is a bit difficult to test, but it should be pretty simple to port to the new system once I am done with it ...
