Hello guys,

Are there any news on the topic ?

Trying to push IP6 at work for our firewalls and struggling with CARP
interfaces with inet6 addresses at boot like OP.

I could probably just set the address with a script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ but I'd rather get it working out of the box,
that'll increase the credibility.
