Great. Please keep us posted. If the patches work as expected, they
will be a worthy addition to the cplus kernel.

I got a kernel built with the patches using the wiki and your notes in
0004586 (thanks). I am pleased  to report
that they appear to work as advertised. With:
net.ipv6.conf.default.forwarding = 2
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 2

Router solicitations were issued and router advertisements were accepted and
I could still forward packets.

Glad to hear things worked. Now that a new c6 kernel update is out, I
will try and see if I could include the patches to this version (
2.6.32-71.24.1 ).

I didn't make new patches, I simply did
%define with_fuzzy_patches 1

Never used it. Is it "safe" to do that?

Also what should the normal rpmbuild line be?
I ended up doing
rpmbuild -bb --target=`uname -m` kernel.spec --with firmware --without debug
--without debuginfo

The first time I didn't have --with firmware and the kernel wouldn't
install.

Yes, C6 kernels require kernel-firmware. I build it with --target noarch.
