Package: bridge-utils
Version: 1.5-7
ifupdown version 0.7.47.2
iproute2 version 3.12.0-1
arch is amd64
Creating the bridge manually is fine:
root:~# brctl addbr bar
root:~# ifconfig bar up
root:~# ip ad add XXX:abcd::1/64 dev bar
root:~# ifconfig bar
bar Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr
Further digging reveals that STP is causing or triggering the fault. If the
bridge_stp option is disabled (and thus `brctl stp bar on` is never
called), then the bridge retains its link-local address as expected.
