Using --dumplease with DHCPv6

If I configure an interface with IPv4 and IPv6, `dhcpcd --dumplease eth2`
displays only IPv4 information. If I configure it with ONLY IPv6, `dhcpcd
--dumplease eth2` says:

dhcpcd[2653]: eth2: no lease to dump

Going off of other patterns I've seen, I tried `--dumplease6`, but I just
got the usage screen. I tried `-6 --dumplease` but I got the same result as
just `--dumplease`.

I see that /var/lib/dhcpcd5/dhcpcd-eth2.lease6 exists, but it's a binary
file that I can't read, so that's not an option.

I'm using version 6.0.5 (which comes with Ubuntu 14.04).

Is DHCPv6 lease dumping something that has come since 6.0.5, meaning I just
need to upgrade? Or is it still not supported?

Thanks,

Nick
