If I try to set up a carp interface for IPv6 on a recent 8.2-STABLE I
get an error using either /64 or /128 as the mask:

ifconfig carp2 vhid 4 advskew 0 pass mycleverpass 2001:a:b:c::2/64

ifconfig 2001:a:b:c::2/64: bad value (width too large)

There are no examples for IPv6 in the man page, or the handbook; and I
can't find any on line. I'm interested in configuration for the command
line, and rc.conf.

ifconfig_carp0="vhid 80 advskew 120 pass yomama 128.32.206.100/32"
ipv6_ifconfig_carp0="2607:f140:ffff:ffff::80/128"

Works on 8.2-STABLE (June 7, 2011).

Note that I cannot get carp to work properly without configuring an IPv4
address.

I should point out that I was able to do the following:

ifconfig carp2 *inet6* vhid 4 ....

as above, and it "worked" in the sense that it configured the carp interface, but subsequently my IPv6 network went straight into the crapper. Hence, the statement that it won't work without an IPv4 address seems to be correct. This seems pretty sub-optimal given the world we currently live in ...
