the problem is firewalls and nat do care, and they are everywhere.

back when i was purchasing large volumes of cisco equipment each year
for an employer, i tried to get cisco to add IL support to IOS. no
dice. apparently, we weren't purchasing enough.

i agree with russ and jmk. IL is long dead. there are plenty of other
projects that would be a better use of your time.
