                I migrated one of my 8-CURRENT (Thu May 21) box to IPv6
                and since then, I
                get the following message at boot:

                syslogd: bind: Can't assign requested address
                syslogd: bind: Can't assign requested address
                syslogd:
                child pid 250 exited with return code 1

                and syslogd obviously fails to start. Apparently this
                problem has been
                reported before, but no actual solution other than start
                syslogd from
                rc.local was given.



I tried disabling the firewall and it didn't  fix the problem.

I have attached a dmesg -a with RC_DEBUG="YES"


So you can run syslogd once the whole system is up and running?
Because that is what the rc.local suggests.
I'm not using the -s open, I've used the -A option to actually specify the addresses I want to listen on. And if you don't want to receive anything from other systems. You might also forgo the option of opening a network socket at all using -s -s.
