Another work-around may be to not require new systemvms unless the ipv6 feature is required in which case: A. We provide the bits of the systemvm of whatever Sheng's been testing with (with the caveat that it is under development/beta) B. Write a patch for cloud-early-config (or ssh in after VR is created) to apt-get update + apt-get install <ipv6 packages>
