Ethereal captures the packets. If MLDv2 is based on icmpv6, then the generic
icmpv6 part will be decoded, but nothing else.

There is no patch. If I understand things correctly, MLDv2 is the equivalent
of igmpv3 for ipv6. If so: How similar are these two? Would it be possible
to reuse the existing igmpv3 code?  How much do the draft revisions change
between editions?

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
