status of rightprotoport=17/%any with xlt2pd, XP and Mac OS X?

Howdy,

We're successfully using OpenSwan on Fedora Core 6
(openswan-2.4.5-2.1) with xl2tpd (xl2tpd-1.1.09-1.fc6) with
Windows
XP.  Our successful configuration file includes the line:

    rightprotoport=17/1701

However, documentation suggests that to also support Mac OS
X, we'll
need to use "%any" instead of "1701",
i.e.,

    rightprotoport=17/%any

However, doing that prevents our XP clients from
successfully using
the VPN.  Compiling, installing and restarting
openswan-2.4.7 from the
Fedora Core test directory (openswan-2.4.7-3.fc7.src.rpm)
does not
clear this problem up.  I haven't yet tried to connect a Mac
OS X
client, because our existing XP users really don't want the
VPN to go
away.

I've scanned the Openswan Users archives and it appears that
this was
a known bug a year ago, but more recent posts suggest that
"rightprotoport=17/%any" works now.  I didn't,
however, find a post
that explained what changed or what else must be done to
get
"rightprotoport=17/%any" to work.

I'm happy to post our configuration files or even the output
of ipsec
barf, but since there's a good chance this is a known issue,
I figured
I'd see if anyone has a pointer to info I should read,
first.

Thanks in advance,
