Ok, here we are.

For the benefit of others on the list who have not been following our 
discussion, the patches I am talking about are here:

http://brunello.uniroma3.6net.garr.it/mrtg/

They were developed by Valerio Bontempi and myself, and everyone is 
welcome to test them (of course). The latest is against 2.9.28, but we 
plan to produce a final patch against 2.9.29 or whatever beta is current 
in a day or two.

Yes, our patch accepts numeric IPv6 addresses. For example, both of 
these work:

> Target[giga-v6]: 3:public@[2001:760:4:0:204:76ff:fe22:5ba0]:6666
> Target[[2001:760:4:0:204:76ff:fe22:5ba0]_3]: 3:public@[2001:760:4:0:204:76ff:fe22:5ba0]:6666

The former was generated by hand, while the latter was generated by 
cfgmaker.
