Adding IA_PD suffix support seemed like a fun spare time activity, so I

Any comments?

Well, I don't know how to setup my git repo to accept stuff on a public non master branch.
Normally patches are posted here and we'll discuss them.
Ayway, I commented on github but I'll repost here also.

+  case O_IA_PD_SUFFIX:
+    free(ifo->ia_suffix);
+    ifo->ia_suffix = malloc(sizeof(*ifo->ia_suffix));

You need to check malloc here as the call could have failed.

While I'm happy with the idea, I dislike the approach because this would also affect creating SLAAC addresses from the RA.

Thanks

Roy
