David hasn't been around in a couple weeks. Myself and several people on the forum have tested his change to fix this issue and it works. I went ahead and committed it.

Thanks for the merge to master, Chris. I submitted a pull request for the RELENG_2_2 version of the patch at https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/2575 and note that you have now merged that, too.

These patches also fix the problem of random interface identifiers on PPP IPv6 interfaces at boot time (issue 2 in https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=101967.30 ). That issue really ought to have its own redmine bug, as the root cause is an issue in mpd5. It should also be reported as an mpd5 bug.

updating this ticket to include both those issues since the commits were done under this ticket number.

This is fixed.

Appreciate all your work, David.
