Herbert,
sorry for bothering you (and everybody else on the list) again. It 
seems that the stack does not replace a "::" source address with a real 
one when using a PF_INET6/SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_RAW socket the way it does 
with an IP_HDRINCL IPv4 socket for "0.0.0.0". Do I have to fill this 
one myself or is there another trick to achieve this?

Thanks and kind regards
  Joerg

It's designed this way in Linux.
