This is a complex question. In general I would expect that dhcp6leased
does not cross rdomain boundaries. I would expect that for
	request prefix delegation on em0 for em1
to work that both em0 and em1 run in the same rdomain.
Delegating a prefix from one rdomain to a different one is certainly not
common and requires extra config to work since you can't trivally jump
rdomains so why would you delegate a prefix.
