Unfortunately, some Linux systems have set the maximum MSRO prefix length to 0 which disables learning of these routes. It can be reenabled via sysctl, but it's unfortunate that this is even necessary.

Yes, looks useful, but I'm not advertising downstream routers so it
shouldn't be required.  According to Wireshark, I have a "Prf High (1)"
field in the Router Advertisement header.  Then I have a Prefix
Information field but no Router Information.
