No, kernel carp used to work with IPv6 in 6.0-RELEASE, but was broken
sometime before 6.1-RELEASE.  It's all in kern/98622.  I may have to
test ucarp though, it would be nice to be able to run a GENERIC kernel,
although my gut instinct is that this sort of functionality should be
kept in the kernel.
