           Summary: netwait on an ipv6 address at system startup does not
                    work when rtsold needs to be started first in order to
                    obtain an ipv6 address for the machine

         Component: conf

I wanted to use netwait_enable in rc.conf in combination with an IPv6
netwait_ip.

In my home network rtsold needs to be started in order to obtain my local IPv6
address from my router.

Because netwait is started before rtsold by the rc scripts, the netwait on an
IPv6 address will never be successful.

In my opinion the simple solution would be changing the order in the rc scripts
and let rtsold run before trying the netwait.
