I don't think those lines are the problem, they are normal IPv6 stuff, I think.
The absence of the oscar_server, nfs_oscar, and pbs_oscar are important because the mentioned services expect them to exist and if they don't then at least nfs and pbs will not work as expected. I think this problem is not terribly unusual and is probably the answer to a number of peoples problems recently.
