Correct way to implement custom IPv6 link-local in OpenBSD ?

What's the correct way to implement a custom IPv6 link-local in OpenBSD ?
In the Linux world you would need to issue a command that includes "scope link" but a glance at the OpenBSD man page for ifconfig suggests no ability to set scope.  So does OpenBSD not differentiate ?

Therefore do I just set an IPv6 link-local as I would any other IP ? i.e. ifconfig $int inet6 fe80..../64 ?
Also how do I stop OpenBSD setting its own link-local ? Just remove "inet6" from hostname.if ?
Thanks !
