Description:
ipv6mon is a tool meant for monitoring IPv6 address usage on a local network. It is meant to be particularly useful in networks that employ IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (as opposed to DHCPv6), where address assignment is decentralized and there is no central server that records which IPv6 addresses have been assigned to which nodes during which period of time.

net-mgmt/ipv6mon: fix installation

Port uses <bsd.prog.mk>, which desires STRIP=${STRIP}, but we have
started to set STRIP=${STRIP_CMD} in MAKE_ENV a while ago.
Override this bogus setting in MAKE_ARGS to fix installation.
