Variant 3 iprange_ipv6_sub was substracting 2 unsigned ints and then casting the result to int to find out whether they are lt, eq or gt each other, this doesn't work if the full 32 bits of each part can be used in IPv6 addresses. Patch should remedy that without significant performance penalties. Also the number of ntohl calls can be reduced this way (Jozsef Kadlecsik). In order to take advantage of the fact that that we are dealing with ordered interval borders, combine checks for both interval borders into one function to skip some tests that would always result in false anyway.
