Do you have examples of such hardware / chipsets ? I'd think it'd
have to be really, really old not to have basic multicast and

layer 2 broadcasts into IPv6 just to cater for such old and rare
hardware.
Yeah, I think it seems to be a unique local example which makes it
exceptional, so maybe don't bother with the RFCs.
It's just that it's something I can't fix in the host driver so I fix it
in the router's driver, and the overall is non-RFC.
If other people haven't run into this problem maybe it's not worth
dealing with it in the RFC.
