machine is:

AlphaServer 400 4/60, 166MHz

>Description:

doing following on a 4.7R box:

# /sbin/ifconfig rl0 2001:858:101::3 prefixlen 64

resulted in:

fatal kernel trap:

    trap entry = 0x2 (memory management fault)
    a0         = 0x0
    a1         = 0x1
    a2         = 0xffffffffffffffff
    pc         = 0x0
    ra         = 0xfffffc0000363f88
    curproc    = 0xfffffe001078b540
        pid = 52311, comm = ifconfig

panic: trap

syncing disks... 7 
done
Uptime: 1d12h39m39s

im sorry but i have no gdb in the kernel as its a production shellbox
and i just wanted to enable IPv6 with upgrading to 4.7R. i have 4.7R
running on a i386 workstation on the same subnet and same command
worked there flawless with 2001:858:101::2. so it makes me think this
is a 64bit/kernel problem on alpha. interesting thing here is that the
autoconfig of the interface during bootup gives:

# ifconfig rl0
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 62.116.11.3 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 62.116.11.7
        inet6 fe80::200:b4ff:feaa:a14c%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        ether 00:00:b4:aa:a1:4c
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active

so the interface itself seems to be able to talk inet6.

>How-To-Repeat:

didnt try but i guess "ifconfig" wo crash the box a second time. 
(cannot test as i have no test box running 4.7/alpha)
