Description
This bug is for tracking purposes and is believed to be a bug in the Linux IPv6 stack.

The failure duplicates on Ubuntu with 2.6.17-10 kernel and this test;
    test/java/nio/channels/DatagramChannel/MulticastSendReceiveTests.java 

On this kernel, IPv4 include-mode and exclude-mode filtering works correctly. With IPv6 then exclude-mode filtering works okay, but include-mode doesn't work.
