	There's a conflict in there.  The default IPv6 ip6tables rules are
using experimental features in the kernel which are not enabled and
which would break IPv4 NAT and MASQ (and who knows what) if they were
enabled.  Basically, stateful filtering is fubared and breaks the IPv6
networking if you try to use it.  They need to drop back to stateless
filtering for ip6tables before release of FC6 (unless it's slipped sooo
far back that we end up with the 2.6.20 kernel where it's expected to
work) or the whole v6 stack is blocked if you have those rules enabled.

	That's why it's rawhide.  :-)
