It is already in davem's stable queue and should be integrated in the next stable
kernels. If openwrt picks them up, it should show up there, too.

(I expect integration hassles for years, actually - dealing with the pure dynamic assignments the isps are demanding is nearly impossible)

May I ask if those fixes for multi-prefix routing made it upstream? Btw. I
am more then willing to have a look at ipv6 kernel problems and maybe
fix them. ;)

Thanks a lot,
