according to rfc-3376:
An IGMP report is sent with a valid IP source address for the
destination subnet.  The 0.0.0.0 source address may be used by a
system that has not yet acquired an IP address.  Note that the
0.0.0.0 source address may simultaneously be used by multiple systems
on a LAN.  Routers MUST accept a report with a source address of
0.0.0.0.

but in my case it is showing me this error message on the terminal 
"source must be unicast"....

XORP is accepting my IGMPv3 report with source IP address "0.0.0.0".

what is the problem with XORP or in my setup?

i m attaching the configuration file that i am using for running IGMPv3
