The problem does the
  option dhcp6.reconf-accept ;
line in the lease file.

man dhcp-option says:

option dhcp6.reconf-accept ;
 The reconf-accept option is included by DHCPv6 clients that support the
 Reconfigure extentions, advertising that they will respond
 if the server were to ask them to Reconfigure.
 There is no support for DHCPv6 Reconfigure extensions,
 and this option is documented informationally only.

Do you have any idea what it is and how it got into the leases file ?

I just ran a ` dhclient -6 -P  ppp0` and that commandline created the
dhclient6.leases file. The file grows and gets shorter all the time. So
I do guess now that isc dhclient is NOT compatible with itself.

Yes, I had to patch dhcp to make it work with ppp as isc does not give ppp a 
well deserved place. see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626514.
ppp plus pd is the way to go for ipv6 I read.

So if dhclient inserts a line in the leases file that it (according to 
documentation) does not use, why doesn't dhclient parse it OK and then ignore 
it?
Is documentation still current for this version?

Title:
  dhclient is unable to parse zero-length option values (breaks DHCPv6)

Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in dhcp package in Fedora:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:        14.04

  isc-dhcp-client:
    Installed: 4.2.4-7ubuntu12
    Candidate: 4.2.4-7ubuntu12
    Version table:
   *** 4.2.4-7ubuntu12 0
          500 http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ubuntu/ trusty/main 
amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Any option with a zero-length value, ie the common DHCPv6 option:

  option dhcp6.reconf-accept ;

  with isc-dhcp-client_4.2.4 produces a parser failure:

  dhclient: /var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6-...-wlan0.lease line 35:
  semicolon expected.
