This is the miniroot list.  The i386 install method does not use
a "miniroot" but instead one of several "ramdisk" images, so if
you wanted to fix this for i386, this is not the place to do so.

Looking at distrib/i386/floppies/ramdisk-big/Makefile and
list.inet6, it would appear that if USE_INET6 is different from
"no", both ping6 and rtsol will be included in the image, so the
support to build this already appears to be there.  You don't say
explicitly which port this is about, though.

My guess is that many of the miniroot images would or will have
room for this addition, but again, this may not be the problem
you wanted to solve.
