Title:
  Constant _ip6_config_add_nameserver: assertion `IN6_ARE_ADDR_EQUAL
  (nameserver, &nameservers[i]) == FALSE' failed  messages in syslog

Bug description:
  
  [Impact]
  Causes extra messages to spam syslog on every address addition netlink 
message, or every route change. (Very often)
  No actual behavioral impact aside from a log which is potentially very 
rapidly growing due to these warning messages.

  [Test Case]
  This requires an Apple Airport device connected in IPv6 tunneling mode.
  1) Connect the computer to the Airport device's network.

  You should see IN6_ARE_ADDR_EQUAL assertions without the patch, and no
  such messages with the patch applied.

  
  [Regression Potential]
  Changes testing logic for IP address comparison to return silently rather 
than asserting (because assertions cause the messages to be printed to syslog); 
so no actual impact on that side except for the messages not being printed out.
  However, this introduces duplicates checking for the routes and addresses as 
well, which has a small potential for extra routes to be missing if the 
duplicate checking fails to consider extra flags which would make the 
similar-looking routes or addresses actually very different.

  ----

  When both the Ethernet and wlan are connected to an Apple Airport
  running IPv6.
