Summary: Mac OS X 10.4.x - 5.3.0.1 fails to build with --enable-ipv6

Initial Comment:
Mac OS X 10.4.x (.6 known, should be all 10.4.x), net-snmp 5.3.0.1 fails 
to build with "--enable-ipv6".  I suspect this is a KPI related issue, and 
the best solution is to re-write the Mac OS X/Darwin specific bits to be 
KPI-aware, one alternate solution being including the appropriate 
(private) kernel headers with net-snmp.  See net-snmp bug 1477403 
for a similar problem.

Sample build failure (from http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/
show_bug.cgi?id=9171):

Workaround/fix is to configure
--with-out-mib-modules=mibII/ipv6 .

Any progress on this? I'm in the process of fixing IPv6
multi-platform support for the upcoming 5.4 release and the
release cycle will start soon.

While the patch I posted is helpful, it does not address all
problems attempting to compile for IPv6. IPv6 apparently
requires private headers that have not been released by Apple.

I am working to resolve this issue.

As I noted in my original post, "I don't have permission to post diffs". As soon as 
legal signs off, I will be happy to.

It's not as complicated as rewriting for a new KPI.

The problem is a mismatched type: OS X uses an integrated PCB struct (inpcb) 
which supports both IPv4 & IPv6; other platforms use separate types (inpcb & 
in6pcb) for the two protocol versions.

Since I don't have permission to post diffs, I can say there are three places in 
ipv6.c where I had to add
  #if STRUCT_in6pcb_HAS_inp_vflag
to determine whether to use the version specific structure or the generic one.

Defining this new flag is an exercise for the reader. ;-)
