> setsockopt(IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU=1); from RFC 3542 works provided the OS has implemented it.  It’s a really pity that POSIX hasn’t picked up RFC 3542 in the 16 years since it was published like they picked up RFC 3493.  This is a epic fail of SDOs.

Thanks for the tip.

Unfortunately checking <linux/in6.h> in the current openwrt build tree.
.
#if 0   /* not yet */
#define IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU        63
#endif

:( not yet implemented
