Enable CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V1 and CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V2 #42

Multicast routing with e.g. smcroute requires defining CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V1=y and CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V2=y in the kernel. This would be a good addition; I can't currently get my Smart-TV Chromecast (in LAN) to talk to my phone (in WLAN) because I can't add multicast routes to my WRT that joins the two networks.

It is enabled for amd64 on Debian mainline at least with 3.0.0: http://kernel.alioth.debian.org/config/3.0.0-5/config_amd64_none_amd64

Thank you for this suggestion. I though I had what was needed for multicast already in place.

The next McDebian beta release will have:

CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V1=y
CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V2=y
CONFIG_IPV6_PIMSM_V2=y

I'm planning to release the beta today.

Thank you! I will try it out and report back.

Sorry there will be a bit of a delay on this beta. I accidentally copied over my new IPv6 base work that was to be included in the next beta and will have to recreate it before the new beta release.

The beta release is ready for testing: https://github.com/Chadster766/McDebian/issues/43
