What startup script is supposed to handle ipv6_defaultrouter="..."?

For the record, here are the IPv6 related variables found in this
particular system's /etc/rc.conf file:

ipv6_enable="YES"
ipv6_defaultrouter="2001:700:XXXX:YYYY::1"
ipv6_ifconfig_em0="2001:700:XXXX:YYYY::24 prefixlen 64"

If I leave out the static address assignment on em0 and the static 
router address, the system gets both an autoconfigurated IPv6 address 
as well as receiving the router's link local IPv6 address and the 
system will use that LL address as the default router.

I'm merely interested in giving em0 a static IPv6 address, and if 
possible leave everything else to be determined by the router's 
advertisement.

Do I need to fiddle with one or more sysctl variables?
