I can reproduce it. Interestingly it only sends out the wrong type when
the "depend on" interfac (carp1 in your example) is down or in backup
state and the configured type is 2.

I don't have much time right now so please don't expect a fast fix.

I don't think this is worth a syspatch. It is not a vulnerability or
stability issue. And I also don't see how it affects existing setups.

I have no clue. But now it is unlikely that the default changes since that
would affect existing setups.
