Ok, this is getting really strange. Maybe the "userspace RA listener" 
has just kicked in, because IPv6 is working, but config is still funny. 
A reboot doesn't change this, so it's a stable situation.

So my working hypothesis is that I did something that started the 
userspace RA listener and now things are working as intended by the 
NetworkManager devs. A bit funny-looking to me, but it still works.

Thanks all,
