>Description:
I have a LAN configured on a subnet, say 2001:db8::/64, with SLAAC and DHCPv6.  I have a NetBSD device with two interfaces, ure0 and urtwn0, configured with dhcpcd, using the only two changes from 10.0_RC3 dhcpcd.conf:

-option rapid_commit
+#option rapid_commit
...
+nooption dhcp6_reconfigure_accept

The DHCPv6 server hands out two different addresses, say 2001:db8::123 and 2001:db8::456, for the two different interfaces.  I'm not sure how it distinguishes which one should get which interface.

Somehow, dhcpcd sometimes configures _both_ interfaces with _both_ addresses:

# ifconfig -a
...
ure0: flags=0x8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
...
        inet6 2001:db8::123/128 flags 0
        inet6 2001:db8::456/128 flags 0
...
urtwn0: flags=0x8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
...
        inet6 2001:db8::456/128 flags 0
        inet6 2001:db8::123/128 flags 0
...

not sure
