Maybe there is a reason why DragonflyBSD fixed it. 

The cloud provider in the same support case I started this thread with said:

--snip--
Additionally, if BSD followed RFC compliance for neighbour table discovery
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861) it would not be an issue, but they do
not. This has been know and unfortunately has affected *BSD all the back to
2012. It's actually BSD that is not RFC compliant in this case.
--snip--

I have not looked that deep. But is the case that FreeBSD does not follow the
RFC4861 regarding Neighbour Discovery?

IF it is not... Then I suggest this will be added to the future ToDo list for
fixing.
