I have a thought. It’s gonna be more work, but I think we should completely
replace dhclient with dhcpcd. Not only would just using dhcpcd for v6 be a
less-clean-than-it-already-is solution, but switching completely to dhcpcd
would be a much-cleaner-than-it-already-is solution. I think the idea of
cleaning things up (across the board) is on everyone’s mind, so let’s just do
it right the first time.
