Further debugging indicates that when the IPv6 lease file contains an
expired lease as its last entry dhclient 'depreferences' it (gives it
up) but doesn't go on to attempt to gain a replacement lease because NM
cancels (kills) the dhclient process as a result of the 'expires'
message.

NM starts "dhclient ... -6 ... -cf dhclient6-${IF}.conf ${IF}" but kills
it and deletes the config file immediately although it leaves the lease
file in place.

I managed to capture the .conf file by waiting for NM to close it and
then making a copy before it was deleted:

sudo touch /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6-${IF}.conf
inotifywait -e CLOSE_NOWRITE,CLOSE dhclient6-${IF}.conf; cp 
dhclient6-${IF}.conf /tmp/

I then executed dhclient in debug mode (after moving the .conf file into
/etc/dhcp/ to avoid apparmor denying access to the file in /tmp/) and
found that after the 'depreference' there is a delay of several minutes
before dhclient requests a new lease:

$ sudo cp /tmp/dhclient6-${IF}.conf /etc/dhcp/

$ sudo /sbin/dhclient -d -6 -N -lf
/var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6-0775a2a6-a4a1-40bf-bd85-9c3068582dbc-
wlp3s0.lease -cf /etc/dhcp/dhclient6-wlp3s0.conf  wlp3s0 |& tee
/tmp/dhclient6.test.log

And it continues running.

In the Network Manager case though syslog shows that NM cancels (kills)
the dhclient process when dhclient reports the 'expire' for the out-of-
date lease:
