What steps will reproduce the problem?

2. use constructor IPv6AddressRange(....)

The library was developed with java7 and depends on some small things only 
available since java7 in the API of BitSet. If you really need a java 6 version 
though, I am willing to consider it.

A version for java6 would be very helpful. One thumb up ;-)

With java6 I get:

javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: 
com/googlecode/ipv6/IPv6Address : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0 (unable 
to load class com.googlecode.ipv6.IPv6Address)

...well, there is a simple but ugly workaround, since the only method missing 
in java6 is BitSet.valueOf(long[]) from java7:

One may download the Class BitSet from java7, add it to to the sourcecode, 
reorganize the imports and create a new jar file.
