Do you know if it's possible to permanently patch happstack-server? I'm guessing the TH in the patch is used to support multiple versions of the network package. Can we just change the minimum supported version?

There's been an open ticket for months; personally I think this is a job for the C preprocessor, but nobody's written a patch yet. I'm not sure but I think IPv6 template Haskell stuff is there not to support old versions of network, but to support platforms where IPv6 may not be available.

I don't recall whether there was some objection to this suggestion previously, but assuming IPv6 support is available might work on more platforms. Then special action would only need to be taken on platforms that lack IPv6. Anton
