Mine looks like this (and it works just fine)

With this setup route show also has the "route: illegal prefixlen" message.
Ignore it. I don't think it has anything to do with your problem.

I used your hostname.gif0 as an example which, of course, gave the same
result. This means that I still experience the same problem.
When I try to setup rtadvd the daemon spits out:
rtadvd[2175]: <ra_output> sendmsg on fxp1: No route to host
I have a gut feeling that this message is related to the "route: illegal
prefixlen" message.
I doubt that. The "route: illegal prefixlen" message is a bad type
conversion in route(8) itself and the following diff resolves this issue.
I'm not using IPv6 and so I don't know what your rtadvd issue is.
The diffs resolved the problem of the "route: illegal prefixlen"
message. Thank you!
Thanks to Marc I finally figured it out; it seems that rtadvd 'pings'
from the auto configured link-local address instead of from the inet6
alias. This means that pf should pass icmp6 traffic from the link-local
address to the internal network.
Thanks Marc and Claudio!
