Description

It is impossible to accept v6 router advertisements when v6 forwarding is enabled.

this patch applies to FreeBSD 8.1 but is made by myself, and I don't trust my C code much.

But it does allow router advertisements with forwarding enabled.
It is based on this patch from bz@

Correct, it is not needed on FreeBSD9 where a alternative is already checked in by Bjoern.

The patch we use from m0n0wall for 8 is fine as it is.
