OK, I thing I've got it.

Kindly try the next patch. It goes on top (in addition to) the previous 
one. This should fix the crash.

There is still some small cruft in the handling of the per route TCP
options for IPv6 left, which means that the per route options might get 
ignored for
incoming IPv6 connections right now. I will fix this if this works.

Thanks!
Gilad
