Okay, here we go. Please have a look at
http://oss.oracle.com/~okir/newrpc/

This makes the client side IPv6 aware, by introducing some concepts
and terminology from TIRPC without pulling in that code wholesale.
(In fact, the only bits I copied from the TIRPC code base were header
files, but that's just because I like to tinker; I guess some things
such as the netconfig stuff might as well be used verbatim, at the
expense of making some code more complicated.)

It hasn't seen much testing; I just confirmed that it still seems to
work with IPv4. The IPv6 side hasn't seen any testing yet.

Please consider this as a proof of concept.

Olaf
