I've already moved it in the my testing tree as long as incorporate all
other changes, I will run it for some time and resubmit tomorrow or so
:)
As of IPv6 support - it could be fairly trivial, the only thing we need
is to dereference TCP header with the appropriate offset anf get don't
fragment bit (ipv6 does not have it, so we could check both entries).
But... I do not have IPv6 network to test the changes (and definitely
did not have it 6 years ago), so it was never implemented :)
