In a server environment, administrators typically assign static IPv6

To add a note, administrators usually avoid *using* EUI-64 addresses for
production, especially for their DNS records.
However, they often have an EUI-64 address because having default routes
and other parameters automatically configured by accept_rtadv is
convenient.
That's why I believe there will be an impact on servers. however, as you
said, it's not an issue here.
At least, we use accept_rtadv in our production AND people typically
configure their rtadvd with the autonomous bit. So this results in
having EUI-64 addresses on the servers, which may be used in source
selection.
I would like to kindly request @madpilot to create this patch for
review, including a note in the UPDATING file, if everyone is in agreement.
I will create a review with this changes soon.
But at present my priority is getting the feature MFCed to stable/15
