Specifying an IPv6 suffix

I want to control the IPv6 suffix for my interfaces and let the prefix
be set with RA.
Currently I can either have the RA prefix with the MAC address for the
suffix, or I can specify a complete IPv6 address (and gateway) and
ignore RA.
The first approach causes problems with DNS if I change the interface.
The second approach causes problems if I change the network prefix.
Or I could implement DHCPv6, but would still have to change its content
if I change the MAC address. And I don't want to ge the DHCPv6 approach
anyway.
The way I want would be better :) but I don't see that it is supported.
My current systems are Centos 5.5 and FC12, so I am stuck, probably with
the world as it is, but at least with FC14, it would be nice....
