It's easy to test.
Here is the issue on OpenBSD dhcpcd tries to work-around (present in
OpenBSD-6.1)

for x in 1 2 3 4 5; do \
	ifconfig xnf0 inet6 alias fd73:79::1/64 vltime 128 pltime 120;\
	ifconfig xnf0 | grep inet6; \
	sleep 5; \
done

        inet6 fd73:79::1 prefixlen 64 tentative pltime 120 vltime 128
        inet6 fd73:79::1 prefixlen 64 pltime 115 vltime 123
        inet6 fd73:79::1 prefixlen 64 pltime 110 vltime 118
        inet6 fd73:79::1 prefixlen 64 pltime 105 vltime 113
        inet6 fd73:79::1 prefixlen 64 pltime 100 vltime 108

As you can see, the vltime and pltime are not updated, so no matter what
userland does the address will always expire as will any associated route.

Can you test this on OpenBSD -current and report back?
