Hehe, no :-)

Support for above feature is just side effect of assigning IPv6 address
for MAC address if MAC address was specified in config file.

Basically after this patch, assigning based on MAC address started
working and therefore code which already handles assigning IP(v4)
address for MAC address handles it for IPv6 too.
