	2002::/16 vs non 2002::/16 should be in the policy table.
	This is the default prefer ipv6 policy table for FreeBSD
	6.4-PRERELEASE.  There is also a alternate prefer ipv4 policy
	table that will be set if IPv6 is disabled.

Prefix                          Prec Label      Use
::1/128                           50     0        0
::/0                              40     1     4997
2002::/16                         30     2        0
::/96                             20     3        0
::ffff:0.0.0.0/96                 10     4        0
