it is backwards compatibility cruft dealing with RFC changes ... the libc is
just where the defines happen to live
RFC3542 obsoletes RFC2292 ... RFC2292 listed the ICMP6_* defines while RFC3542
changed to the MLD_* defines
it didnt make much sense to me to move these defines to portability.h as they
are only used in ping6.c
