+      '' Currently, NFS commands use the SunRPC routines provided by the
+         glibc.  These routines do not support IPv6 addresses.  Ulrich
+         Drepper, who is the maintainer of the glibc, refuses any change in
+         the glibc concerning the RPC.  He wants the RPC to become a separate
+         library.  Other OS (NetBSD, FreeBSD, Solarix, HP-UX, AIX) have
+         migrated their SunRPC library to a TI-RPC (Transport Independent
+         RPC) implementation.  This implementation allows the support of
+         other transports than UDP and TCP over IPv4.  FreeBSD provides a
+         TI-RPC library ported from NetBSD with improvments.  This library
+         already supports IPv6.  So, the FreeBSD release 5.2.1 TI-RPC has
+         been ported to replace the SunRPC of the glibc.
