Great!

Thanks for the patch. It's a bit slower, but since DHCPv6 is by no means 
time-critical, this fix will be gladly accepted.

In fact this way of storing data is used in several places, so it will 
take some time to fix all of them. I suppose that by the end of weekend it 
will checked in. Too bad it was not reported before 0.6.0 release.
