Kernel panic when trying to ping6

Sorry, I guess I should have simply create an issue on bugs.dragonflybsd.org.
Just did so.

But while here, is it a correct way to add a route the way I did? I mean this:

route add -inet6 fe80::201:71ff:fe0c:f607 -iface vke0

(The address is a link-local address of the second vkernel.)

Thanks.
