According to etc/rc.d/netif on stable/10, ipv6_enable is indeed
superceeded by ipv6_activate_all_interfaces. Look at around line 47.
Since you're setting an IPv6 address on igb0 below, you shouldn't need
to use ipv6_activate_all_interfaces.

Do you need to fiddle with ipv6_network_interfaces?
Here's a quote from rc.conf(5) on stable/10:
ipv6_network_interfaces
(str) This is the IPv6 equivalent of network_interfaces.
Normally manual configuration of this variable is not needed.
If you do need to fiddle, try adding lo0 at the beginning of the list.
If that doesn't help, then I'm out of ideas. :-/

This line uses the right nomenclature with _ipv6 at the end of the
variable's name, and there's nothing wrong with the syntax as I can
tell.

Maybe this is the real culprit. As far as I can tell you are inserting
the same route twice.

Thank you, that option work for me at the moment.
My system ist now FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 4 and Firefox is running.
With Beta2 or 3 i got the errormessage __bsd_iconv is missing.
I hope my video memory problem will be solved with rc4.
