ip6tables multiport does not support x:y
PATCH 1/1 ip6tables multiport does not support x:y
Update the manpage for ip6tables multiport match to reflect reality -- it does not (yet) support x:y syntax. I looked at adding it, but adding revision support to ip6tables seems a waste at this point, since once xtables support is added to iptables, this problem will resolve itself.
Closes bug #451.

Agreed, Harald was already working on this some time ago.
