Hello all,
the IPv4 socket interface had the nifty IP_HDRINCL option. It seems 
that an IPv6 version of this option is not available. The proposed 
solution for this seems to be to use libpcap to inject the packet. 
Unfortunately this completely bypasses both, netfilter and IPsec. So, 
am I lost or is there a way to do what I want/need?

Thanks in advance
   Joerg
