I ran across a few problems after I remade world. The new scoped
address syntax breaks /etc/rc.network6. In particular, some lines that
look like:

The definition of $laddr is not compatible with the scoped addressing
syntax. Instead, it needs something like:
laddr=`ifconfig ${ipv6_default_interface} inet6 \
| grep "inet6 ${ipv6_default_interface}%fe80:" \
| head -1 | awk '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/.*%//'`
There's another, similar snippit of code in the router-specific part of
the script.
Another problem occurred when I modified /etc/rc.network6 as above:
route: writing to routing socket: Network is unreachable
add net fe80::: gateway fe80::1: Network is unreachable
route: writing to routing socket: Network is unreachable
add net ff02::: gateway fe80::1: Network is unreachable
add net ::ffff:0.0.0.0 gateway ::1
add net ::0.0.0.0 gateway ::1
net.inet.ip6.forwarding: 0 -> 0
net.inet.ip6.accept_rtadv: 0 -> 1
These actions all happened between the start and the end of DAD for my
(one) Ethernet interface (I have a single-homed host).
Finally, could you say whether or not lo0 should really be the default
value for ipv6_default_interface in /etc/defaults/rc.conf? I have this
vague feeling it's wrong but I don't know enough to say why:
> +ipv6_default_interface="lo0" # Default output interface for scoped addrs.
Thanks!
