Folks,

FYI, OpenBSD now ships with RFC7217 support, and in the process, they
have removed the artificial /64 limit, and can do SLAAC on prefixes
shorter and longer than /64 (say, /60, /32, etc.).

Quite cool. -- but even if you disagree, I guess the "FYI" is still
valuable. :-)

P.S.: The reader might enjoy the commit message at:

 :-)

Thanks!

Cheers,
