            Bug ID: 285545
           Summary: netinet6: binding to an inet6 anycast address should
                    be permitted
           Product: Base System
           Version: 15.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
               URL: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/pull/1618
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
          Reporter: l...@hemlock.eden.le-fay.org

bind(2) (via netinet6/in6_pcb.c:in6_pcbbind_avail()) disallows binding to
IN6_IFF_ANYCAST addresses.  this was forbidden by RFC 3513, but the restriction
was lifted in RFC 4291, so we should allow this.

see URL for patch.
