Thanks a lot!

Works for me too, so I took the liberty to upload 0.76-3 with this
patch included (and the previous patch dropped, given it was only
needed to workaround the suboptimal Debian's IPv6 patch we don't need
anymore in Net-Server): as far as Debian Wheezy is concerned,
Net-Server 2.00x is all we care about.

I agree it would be nice to test this patch against unpatched
Net-Server 0.99 (or whatever version long-term distros ship) before
forwarding this patch upstream. However, if nobody finds time to do
this testing any time soon, I'd rather see us forward the patch
upstream as is, and making it clear to what extent it was tested, than
keeping it under the Debian's carpet for a few years.

Cheers,
