Dave,


    Actually I suspect that more ARP implementations will break than will IPv4
    implementations (unless the IP header checksum field is in the same place i
		  n
    SIP as IPv4), since these are notoriously bad about checking all of the
    fields.

SIP currently specifies use of its lower 32-bits with ARP.  So, ARP
shouldn't see anything different from current practise with IPv4.
