2.6 ipv6 doesn't take route advertisements

Hi,

it looks like the 2.6 kernel doesn't take default route
advertisements from either zebra or radvd.  I can see
the default routes being advertised with radvdump, but
they don't show up in the routing table of either of my
2.6 machines.  They both run a fairly recent 2.6 kernel.

Known bug ?

Works fine here with test9-bk15
Router runs radvd.
