IPv6 RFC 3542 with socket module?

Is there any way to access the RFC 3542 defined macros such as
ICMP6_FILTER_SETPASSALL() from within the socket module? A dir() on the
socket module (Python 2.4.1, built on a solaris box with IPv6 support)
doesn't show anything that looks like it (and socket.has_ipv6 is True).

No. Not sure it would belong into the socket module, though:
an icmp module could be developed independently from the socket
module if needed.
