sysctl just hangs here:

root@powermacg5:/home/bacon # sysctl -a|grep temp
net.inet6.ip6.use_tempaddr: 0
net.inet6.ip6.temppltime: 86400
net.inet6.ip6.tempvltime: 604800
net.inet6.ip6.prefer_tempaddr: 0
hw.usb.template: -1

Then dmesg shows:

iichb0: I2C error
ad74171: iicbus write failed
ad74171: iicbus write failed
ad74171: iicbus write failed

Again, this is on 12.0-RELEASE and I use it only for ports testing.

Thanks,
