    Avoid reordering IPv6 interface addresses
    
    When deleting unsuitable addresses in get_interface_address6_list(), to
    avoid reordering IPv6 interface addresses and keep the order returned by
    the OS, use SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT_KEEPORDER() instead of
    SMARTLIST_DEL_CURRENT().
    
    This issue was reported by René Mayrhofer.
