Thank you for the work.

Lowering severity since this is usually easy to work around by using an ipv4 network,
at least temporarily in rfc1918 address space.

Thank you but definitely not: I've been already blamed by
adding even simplest patches to debian which are not applied
upstream - the ones which does not affect functionality in
any way. Your does affect, so per upstream, it must be applied
upstream first.
