Please find the more proper fix at
http://people.freebsd.org/~qingli/nd6-patch.diff
I realized I was slightly off in my previous email after
I spent a bit more time looking through the problem.
Both prefixes are present but one was marked off-link due
to the fact only a single prefix route was installed in
the routing table (non RADIX_MPATH system).
I evaluated various options to fixing this issue, however,
due to the association between NDPRF_ONLINK and the route
installation, I decided to go with what I have here for
the time being.
I have verified the fix in my setup. Please apply the
patch and report back.
Thanks,
