It's rev 1.22 of slaacd/engine.c. I didn't have time for any intensive
staring at the code, yet. The address should not have changed. And I

wanted to improve on that on completely forgot about it.
2018/02/10 - RFC 7217 style IPv6 addresses enabled by default
Let me first figure out why your IPs changed and then improve the
current.html entry.
