>Description:

My bge0 interface is currently not wired. It gets a detached IPv6 link local
address:

bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
[..]
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier
        inet6 fe80::226:2dff:fe90:46d1%bge0 prefixlen 64 detached scopeid 0x1

ntpd tries to use this interface and logs (lots of!):

Sep 24 21:36:24 night-owl ntpd[529]: bind(29) AF_INET6 
fe80::226:2dff:fe90:46d1%1#123 flags 0x11 failed: Can't assign requested address
Sep 24 21:36:24 night-owl ntpd[529]: unable to create socket on bge0 (47) for 
fe80::226:2dff:fe90:46d1#123
Sep 24 21:36:24 night-owl ntpd[529]: failed to init interface for address 
fe80::226:2dff:fe90:46d1


>How-To-Repeat:

Run ntpd in default config on a machine with ip6mode=autohost and disconnected
network cable.

>Fix:
n/a
