Well, I certainly tested it when I implemented it - under Solaris. If
anyone can find a situation where it doesn't work, I'll do my best to
fix it if possible.
The key thing is how the getpeername() function works under Debian when
called from a program run from inetd. Maybe this is another IPv6 issue?
I will do further investigation in due course.
