That bit is expected, the NL support was added specifically
because the non-NL support couldn't be expanded to handle ipv6.
So as you need ipv6 you also need NL. And curiously that seems
to result in the connection count being bogus.
Would it be possible for you to test this against a newer kernel - say
2.6.32 or 2.6.33-rc4. It would be good to know if the problem is
still present.
On an unrelated note, I'm going to be away from my desk attending
Linux.Conf.Au from now until the 25th. Apologies in advance for any delays
that may cause.
