I figured out what the problem is. I suddenly had a bright moment and 
remembered me finding dhcp6 settings last week that seemed wrong. They were set 
to "Ignore", while this is not the behavior i want, since I want NM to acquire 
dhcp6 addresses when available. Therefor i set it to "Automatic" on all 
networks i have in my list.
However, this seems to break ipv4 as well. When no dhcp6 address can be 
acquired, NM just disconnects. Although this is not related to the new package, 
as the title of this bug report implies, this is still a bug! I expect NM to 
just leave the network connected when it finds an ipv4 address and no ipv6, no 
matter what the setting for ipv6 is, since it has network connectivity. 
Disconnecting a working ipv4 is always wrong. I worked around the problem by 
setting ipv6 back to "Ignore" for now.
