 An interface on FreeBSD 8.x accepts RAs only when
 net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1 *and* ACCEPT_RTADV is enabled at the
 same time.

 This has been the default behavior regarding RAs for a long time.  A
 new thing on 8.x is that the interface option ACCEPT_RTADV is exposed
 in the ifconfig output.  This flag was actually enabled by default
 prior to 8.x, too.
