I think the problem comes from thinking that it's reasonable to have
two (or more) stanzas per interface. The syntax of /etc/network/interfaces
should permit complete configuration of an interface within a single
stanza.
So, for the moment, the "ugly workaround" is best:
iface br0 inet static
address 192.168.14.1
netmask 255.255.0.0
bridge_ports eth0
up ifconfig br0 add 2001:8e0:abcd:5d7::1/64
An extension to the /etc/network/interfaces syntax might look like this:
iface br1
inet address 192.168.14.1/16
inet gateway 192.168.1.255
inet6 address 2001:8e0:abcd:5d7::1/64
bridge_ports eth0
An automatically configured ipv4+ipv6 bridge interface might look
like this:
iface br2
inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0
(the kernel will configure the ipv6 address when it receives a router
advertisement packet).
