Doesn't seem to work here. It asks for the encryption key, sets the key
correctly and the link is working. IPv6 autonegotiation works and
connectivity is working -- I can see traffic on the network with
tcpdump. But there's no DHCP request, so no Legacy IP address, and very
soon it asks me for another encryption key.

Dhcdbd is installed and running, but doesn't seem to be doing much --
it's just sitting in a select() loop.

While it's claiming that the network is broken and asking me for another
key, I can continue to use IPv6 just fine, and I can even use IPv4 if I
give it an address manually.

On the plus side, this does seem to fix the problem I had with 'ifup
bnep0' not working because dhclient complained that something else was
already listening on the dhcp client socket :)
