For a slightly different problem (adding a static ipv6 on the same
interface, [1]), I ended up creating a service that just did "ip
address add dev <device> <address>" on startup, and it seems to work.
Maybe you can do something similar? The "ip" program is from the
iproute package, defined in (gnu packages linux).

Hoping that it helps.
