Yes, and Cisco's foot-dragging on putting it into IOS didn't help
matters one bit.  Cisco wanted to make it so that anyone running IPv6
in a supported product would have to discard and scrap all their
existing -running- gear.  It really makes running Quagga/Zebra on
a Xeon or better an extremely attractive alternative.
