I'm running into a lot of issues with IPv6 that I've isolated to my F20
installations. All other systems on the network are working fine
(Windows, Android, embedded OS). I intend to start running intensive
IPv6 tests with a "stable" system as a control to ensure I know where
the problems lie, but I suspect that IPv6 isn't as robust as we would
like it to be.

I'll start working on the test cases later today.
