that section as this:

   Recommended values for T1 and T2 are 0.5 and 0.8 times the
   shortest preferred lifetime of the prefixes in the IA_PD that the
   server is willing to extend, respectively.

which dhcpleased implements. I wonder why I didn't implement the same
thing in dhcp6leased, I even put an XXX in.

Please try this (it also fixes the calculation of lease_time, it needs
to be the smallest vltime, not the largest.):
