Ok, one detail about the patch: it only replaces the call to sizeof()  
when it is used to compare the length of the data received from the  
network. Otherwise, most of the sizeof() call in the mip6d code are  
fine.

The patch targets UMIP 0.4 from the USAGI git tree. I tested the patch  
against TAHI tests, and got the same results than for a legacy umip-0.4.

Ok, good!
