------- Comment #1 from gentoo@xxxxxxxxx  2008-02-12 20:23 -------
The problem resides in the network-bridge script, which can't handle more than
one IP address on the interface. IPv6 is NOT the problem.

If you have multiple IPs (IPv4 and/or IPv6) on the interface the grep in the
"addr_pfx=..." line returns
more than one line and "ip addr add ${addr_pfx} dev $1" will fail. 

I found an approrach to fix this killing interface behavior based on
http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=332.

This patch adds support for multiple IPv4 and v6 addresses on the interface.
