I was going to get all political about this, but I thought better of
it :-)

In the extremely unlikely event that you have not heard about it, the
KAME project seems very close to completion of a second IP stack for
the *BSD OSes.  If you need e-mail details, drop me a line or have a
look at the e-mail archives for tech-net@net..., which you ought
to be able to find on <http://www.netbsd.org/>.

Note that WinNT (or is it only Win2k?) has a putative IPv6 stack in
it.  The fact that it is not widely deployed can be interpreted any
way one likes :-)
