If it is simply replacing IPV6_PKTINFO with IPV6_RECVPKTINFO then I'd be happy to do this.
Anything more complicated than that - it would be good to have some of the developers taking
a look.
Here is the text of the manpage (ipv6 in section 7):
IPV6_PKTINFO
Set delivery of the IPV6_PKTINFO control message on incoming datagrams.
Only allowed for SOCK_DGRAM or SOCK_RAW sockets. Argument is a pointer to a
boolean value in an integer.
The v4 IP_PKTINFO works in the same way as the above description.
