::1 magically replaced with other address

[Pieter de Boer]

Hullo,

On my 8.0-RELEASE-p1 system, my ::1 address on lo0 has been magically 
replaced with a global routable IPv6 address I have configured on lo3. 
This has happened two times with a week or so interval, without me doing 
any ifconfigs. With `replaced' I mean that ::1 is simply gone from the 
interface, although a route to it remains. Instead of ::1, one of the 
addresses configured on lo3 is also there on lo0.

The address that ::1 is suddenly replaced with, is assigned to a jail 
that has it assigned to a child jail. There are also other IPv6 
addresses assigned to this jail and its child jail, but those don't show 
up on lo0 all of a sudden: only one out of the set does.

My question is, has anyone seen anything like this or does anyone have a 
clue how I could debug this? I cannot easily reboot the affected system 
to add debugging statements to the kernel, etc, but perhaps there are 
other ways?

Thanks,
Pieter
