Out of curiosity, why did you use /126 in the former configuration?
We're now discussing how the kernel should treat IPv6 global addresses
on a p2p link, and we are interested in actual users' intentions.

p.s. if I understand correctly, FreeBSD 4.4 kernel now rejects a
prefix length smaller than 128 when the "destination" address on a p2p
link is specified.
