Thanks for the pointers. I might consider this once I see a date when this all
is going to happen. However, I have more issues to solve (apart from FTN stuff).
These will probably require some kind of IPv4 address, anyway.

Yes, that's one option. I havn't looked into it long enough to understand if
this would solve all my issues (and at which cost). I might be more effective to
rent some vserver including an IPv4 address and set up the required NAT and
mapping there. Among other things, I'd also like to keep accessability of my
home network from my workplace (which is, up no now and for all foreseeable
future, an v4-only outfit).

Nobody knows. Thanks to this DSlite "solution", there may be more people facing
these issues around here rather sooner than later.

Gerrit
