DHCPv6 *still* broken for F17 alpha

Can we please address the following bug that is almsot two years old.
This bug causes long delays for people enabling IPV6, and causes
Fedora to not get any connectivity on IPv6 only networks, unless you
disable/reconfigure ip6tables manually

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552099
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=591630

Please, just add the following rules to the default ip6tables:

-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 546 --sport 547 -s fe80::/10 -d fe80::/10 -j ACCEPT

It would be REALLY nice if we can get this into F17 this time.

Paul
