Thank You... yes as I needed to patch a few places to get my client
working...I also needed to create macros for loading from buffer into
variables as well..

Thanks so much for this! It's very much appreciated.

Because
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.
