Yes, this is in need of some reworking for DHCPv6. I'm not personally
running any IPv6, and not in a position to learn it quickly enough to make
the desired progress on this. Are you able to do some pre-release testing of
changes to dhclient-script, so I don't release something that doesn't work
right?
