  SVN rev 197145 on 2009-09-12 22:22:31Z by hrs
  
  The following changes are added because of
  network_ipv6->rc.d/netif integration:
  
  - $ipv6_enable is now obsolete.  Instead, IPv6 is enabled by
    default if the kernel supports it, and $ipv6_network_interfaces
    is "none" by default.  If you want to use IPv6, define
    $ipv6_network_interfaces and $ifconfig_xxx_ipv6.
  
    An interface which is in $network_interfaces and not in
    $ipv6_network_interfaces will be marked as "inet6
    -auto_linklocal ifdisabled" (see ifconfig(8)).
  
  - $ipv6_ifconfig_xxx is renamed to ifconfig_xxx_ipv6 for
    consistency with other address families.  The old variables
    still work but can be removed in the future.  Note that
    ipv6_ifconfig_xxx="..." should be replaced with
    ifconfig_xxx_ipv6="inet6 ...".
  
  - Receiving ICMPv6 Router Advertisement is not automatically
    enabled even if there is no manual configuration of IPv6 in
    rc.conf.  If you want it, define
    ifconfig_xxx_ipv6="inet6 ... accept_rtadv".
  
  - The rc.d/ip6addrctl now chooses address selection policy based
    on $ipv6_prefer, not $ipv6_enable.  The default is
    ipv6_prefer=NO.
  
  - $router* and $ipv6_router* are replaced with $routed_* and
    $route6d_* for consistency.  The old variables still work but
    can be removed in the future.
