** Description changed:

  After upgrading from Hardy to Jaunty Beta, IPV6 interfaces no longer get
  an auto configured IPV6 global address:
  
  eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1d:7d:a8:ee:22
            inet addr:10.128.1.2  Bcast:10.128.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
            inet6 addr: fe80::21d:7dff:fea8:ee22/64 Scope:Link
            UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
            RX packets:22434 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
            TX packets:22801 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
            collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
            RX bytes:10662818 (10.6 MB)  TX bytes:2622283 (2.6 MB)
            Interrupt:251 Base address:0xe000
  
   If I reboot the same system using the 2.6.27-14 kernel from Intrepid
  the address does appear:
  
  eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1d:7d:a8:ee:22
            inet addr:10.128.1.2  Bcast:10.128.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
            inet6 addr: 2001:470:1f05:257:21d:7dff:fea8:ee22/64 Scope:Global
            inet6 addr: fe80::21d:7dff:fea8:ee22/64 Scope:Link
            UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
            RX packets:22434 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

            Interrupt:251 Base address:0xe000
  
  Doing tcpdump on the server running radvd shows that there are no
- autoconfiguration requests being recieved.
+ autoconfiguration requests being recieved from the system booting with
