Excellent.  Thank you.  I glanced right over that in
/etc/default/rc.conf.  I just added the above line to /etc/rc.conf and
ran /etc/rc.d/ip6addrctl start prefer_ipv6.  Now, it works as expected:

(dax:16:47)% telnet he.net. 80

It's my understanding that by leaving ip6addrctl_policy as AUTO will
only prefer IPv6 if ipv6_enable_all_interfaces is set to YES, which it
is in my /etc/rc.conf.  However, it appears that this never resulted in
ip6addrctl_prefer_ipv6 being called from /etc/rc.d/ip6addrctl.  Maybe
I'm reading this wrong ...=20
