 Thank you.  It is explained in section 3.2.4 in

  http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.0R/relnotes-detailed.html#UPGRADE

 I think it will work as 8.X just after removing the ipv6_enable=YES
 line in your rc.conf, but after investigating the network.subr
 closely I found a bug in backward compatibility of ipv6_enable=YES on
 9.X...  Can you try the attached patch?  This should fix the issue
 even if ipv6_enable=YES exists on a 9.X's rc.conf without a patch to
 rc.d/rtadvd.
