+    bridge-utils: Fix compile against linux-3.8.x
+    
+    Linux 3.8 has a header, include/uapi/linux/if_bridge.h that uses a
+    struct in6_addr but doesn't define it.  The trivial seeming fix of
+    including the header that does define it causes more problems.  The
+    problem was discussed on mailing lists in January 2013.  The final
+    suggestion I found was here:
+    
+          http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-January/msg01253.html
+    
+    This is intended to implement that suggestion.
