I've recently set up a VPS with v6 and am seeing the same "in6_ifadd: <v6_addr> is already configured" messages in response to periodically received router advertisements every 5-10 mins. The host is a KVM-based virtual machine with vtnet-based NIC. v6 is fully functional with the statically assigned v6 address, but the spam in /var/log/messages is annoying.
