For some reason, every time I create a GRE interface on a FreeBSD IPv6 gateway, net.inet6.ip6.forwarding is disabled. As long as I manually re-enable it with sysctl, both the GRE tunnel and the IPv6 network behind this machine will continue to work; however, it's certainly far from ideal.
There's nothing in the log to indicate exactly what's going on here: Feb 9 11:23:08 router rtadvd[27251]: interface added (idx=8) Feb 9 11:23:08 router devd: Executing '/etc/pccard_ether gre0 start' Feb 9 11:23:21 router rtadvd[27251]: non-zero lifetime RA but net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=0. Ignored.
