I just realised that this bug also impacts NetworkManager, at least on
Vivid: I set the property "ipv6.ip6-privacy" on the default wired
Ethernet interface to 0 (in order to prevent a remote CIFS mount from
freezing every few hours), however after a reboot, privacy extensions
remained active. My assumption is that NetworkManager configured the
interface correctly (without privacy extensions) early on during the
boot process, only to have the procps' 10-ipv6-privacy.conf overwrite it
moments later. Disabling 10-ipv6-privacy.conf solved this issue too.

** Summary changed:

- 10-ipv6-privacy.conf stomps on user-configured "privext" option
+ 10-ipv6-privacy.conf stomps on the ifup/NetworkManager 
"privext"/"ipv6.ip6-privacy" settings

** Also affects: ifupdown (Ubuntu)
