To me, this sounds as if the sysctl is actually turning *off* acceptance
of RouterAdvertisements on the ppp0 interface - so if you wait enough
time for the address to be already there, turning off RAs won't harm.
So this is less of a race but more a misconfiguration - find out where
$accept_ra is set, and make sure it's set to "1" :-)
