Perl and IPv6

It turns out that there is some interest in getting Perl more IPv6-capable, after all. A guy by the name of Steffen Ullrich has written a blog post talking about the current state of affairs, and also uploaded some modules to CPAN making it easier to use IPv6 from Perl scripts. They're based on the same kind of monkeypatching that we use in DNSCheck, but covers more functionality. And, of course, are generally usable instead of being a small part of an unrelated package.
