Good idea, since it works on ping6 (quite strange anyway, to use -I  
to set source adress ;)
But this solution does not work for dhcpv6.

 > ./dhcp6c -dDf ::1
[...]
Apr/11/2006 18:45:30: ifreset: invalid interface(::1): No such device


The error we are tryong to avoid occurs later, when dhcpv6 try to  
send a message

 >./dhcp6c -dDf lo
[...]
Apr/11/2006 18:45:47: client6_send: transmit failed: Network is  
unreachable


Applications may select the outgress interface explicitly from cli  
and/or implicitly from the selected source address. Ping6 does both.  
dhcpv6 does only the former.
