Last year, I reported some confusing behavior with route(8), which was
kindly resolved with both an immediate workaround and code improvements.

I now realize that I am experiencing the reverse problem in 6.6, in that I
cannot resolve any IPv6 address with explicit netmasks. This applies to
IPv6 addresses with and without the trailing double-colon. There have been
several changes in mid-2018 that could have caused this, but I had blamed
failures on intermittent (intermittent) ISP / dhcpcd issues without
investigating.
I can easily fix my script, but figured I should report the regression.
(Apologies for formatting as usual.)
Thanks!
