Re: NET-SNMP version: 5.7.3 and IPv6

Seems like --enable-ipv6  is not enough to make SNMPv2 work with IPv6 since:

# ./snmpd  -H 2>&1 | grep community
    trapsink                 host [community] [port]
    trap2sink                host [community] [port]
    informsink               host [community] [port]
    trapcommunity            community-string
    com2sec                  [-Cn CONTEXT] secName
IPv4-network-address[/netmask] community
    com2sec6                 [-Cn CONTEXT] secName
IPv6-network-address[/netmask] community
    com2secunix              [-Cn CONTEXT] secName sockpath community
    authcommunity            authtype1,authtype2 community
[default|hostname|network/bits [oid|-V view [context]]]
    rwcommunity              community [default|hostname|network/bits
[oid|-V view [context]]]
    rocommunity              community [default|hostname|network/bits
[oid|-V view [context]]]

does not show  rwcommunity6 and rocommunity6 .

So what other flags do I need in addition to (--enable-ipv6) to re-compile
to make rwcommunity6/rocommunity6 available?
