I think I've fixed IPv6 handling now (needs patches to iscsictl and
iscsid), at least it works here.

I can currently only test against istgt (from pkgsrc) on NetBSD and
a qnap NAS.

The error message (ENODEV) is only generated by LFS on failures to mount
a root filesystem. So no idea yet what error is triggered.

On the other hand, attempting to use LFS showed errors with handling
block sizes and running the filesystem tester (fsx) somewhen paniced
the system. Whatever was "fixed" in LFS was not good enough :-/
