are unaware of RFC 3542 can construct control messages.
The kernel disallows mixing RFC 2292 behaviour with RFC 3542 behaviour.
Only sockets that have specifically been marked as using the RFC 2292
API can use RFC 2292 specific options. This is all good and well, but
libc itself seems inconsistent with this.
The root cause of this inconsistency seems to relate to the definitions
of IPV6_HOPOPTS and IPV6_DSTOPTS. They are defined in RFC 2292 and re-used
in RFC 3542, yet have distinct values in the kernel. It's for this reason
that the kernel also has definitions for IPV6_2292HOPOPTS and
IPV6_2292DSTOPTS. Not so in libc.
For example: some program calls inet6_option_init() (defined by RFC 2292)
with the RFC 2292 defined IPV6_HOPOPTS and IPV6_DSTOPTS. Before RFC 3542,
this was translated to values of 22 and 23 (resp.) The libc implementation
correctly checks that only options IPV6_HOPOPTS and IPV6_DSTOPTS are given
(as per RFC 2292) but since these defines have taken on the values defined
by RFC 3542 (values 49 and 50 resp,) rejects the correct option values
(22 and 23) passed said program and returns -1.
The precisie fix is to have inet6_option_init() and friends only accept the
RFC 2292 defined IPV6_HOPOPTS & IPV6_DSTOPTS, but that breaks other code
(like mld6query(8)), which seem to not be aware of RFC 3542 and how it
hi-jacked the option names. So the best fix is to accept the options from
both.

The previous code failed to return an error condition when the whole input
was invalid due to improper handling of the sscanf return value. Actually,
this failure was properly being caught by a test in
tools/regression/lib/libc/net/test-ether.t but was not noticed because
these tests are never run. (On my way to fixing that ;-)
The fix applied here resembles the implementation of ether_line in NetBSD
modulo the setting of an errno value (which is not documented as an
expectation in the manpage anyway).
if not already defined. This allows building libc from outside of
lib/libc using a reach-over makefile.
A typical use-case is to build a standard ILP32 version and a COMPAT32
version in a single iteration by building the COMPAT32 version using a
reach-over makefile.

* The RFC says (in section 10.1) that only when extbuf is not NULL,
extlen shall be checked, so don't perform this check when NULL is
passed.
* socklen_t is unsigned, so checking extlen for less than zero is
not needed.
