Hi everyone,

a (stupid?) question: Is it possible to remove the ipv6 module? After mod-
probing, rmmod always returns "device busy".
I discovered a module parameter (unloadable=1) which overrides this check,
but I fear it might be there for some good reason :-)  On the other hand,
rebooting the system just to test a new version of the module is really
annoying... any suggestions?

Stefan.
