Generic patches for connecting to a BMC over IPv6 in addition to IPv4. Patch is against 1.8.13RC1 sources.

Depending on your infrastructure and even if you have only one network interface on your ipmitool client, you might have to specify the IPv6 address with the (correct) scope identifier (similar to ping6):

./src/ipmitool -I lan -H FE80::219:99FF:FE95:5FF4%eth1 -U user -P password mc info
