[c-nsp] ASA ipv6 + icmp types

So I'm playing around with ipv6 on the ASA.  I'm running the latest code 
(8.2(1)).  And in trying to get traceroutes and pings 'through' the ASA, 
I've found that icmp-types are translated to 'english' but using the ipv4 
codes.  I.e. code 3 for ipv6 is time-exceeded but shows up in config as 
unreachable (because unreachable == 3 in ipv4).

I'm guessing I should open a TAC case and complain ?  You could call it a 
cosmetic issue, but I see myself making mistakes because the burden is on 
me to translate the icmp types as I enter config :(
