Just try a bleeding edge kernel and try again. Then we can see what's
going on there. Also set a eui-64 address (extended address) before
running "iz set". You can do that by "ip link set $WPAN_INTERFACE address $EXTENDED_ADDR".

exmaples for variables:

WPAN_INTERFACE="wpan0"
EXTENDED_ADDR="aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa"

Please do these steps while $WPAN_INTERFACE is down.
