	Hi all,


I'm having problems setting my box as an ipv6 router.  It's already
doing 6to4 using the following configuration without problems.

	ipv6_enable="YES"
	ipv6_defaultrouter="2002:c058:6301::"  # Use this for 6to4 (RFC 3068)
	ipv6_prefix_xl1="2002:5143:8351:"
	stf_interface_ipv4addr="81.67.131.81"

When I add the following knobs :

	ipv6_gateway_enable="YES"
	rtadvd_enable="YES"
	rtadvd_interfaces="xl0"

The ipv6_gateway_enable causes the startup script to issue another
ifconfig command (line 101 of /etc/rc.d/network_ipv6) which fails
with the following error message :

	ifconfig: 2002:5143:8351:::: bad value

I assume I must be doing something stupid since I'm no IPv6 expert.
Another odd thing to note is that the boot scripts output :

	IPv4 mapped IPv6 address support=NO

while it works fine (except for the gateway thing).

Any thoughts are of course appreciated.

Cheers,
Maxime
