multiple ipv4 and ipv6 addresses in /etc/network/interfaces on Raspberry Pi

I have been very frustrated trying to set up multiple ipv4 and ipv6 address on one interface, in this instance, eth0.

alan@strigosus ~ $ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr b8:27:eb:cb:6c:98 
          inet addr:90.155.48.158  Bcast:90.155.48.159  Mask:255.255.255.224

The solution I found to work was to have one alias for each ip

This is my /etc/network/interfaces


auto lo eth0  eth0:1 eth0:2 eth0:3 eth0:4 eth0:5 eth0:6 eth0:7 eth0:8

iface lo inet loopback

# strigosus
# Pi Also for dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 90.155.48.158
netmask 255.255.255.224
gateway 90.155.48.129


# idaeus
# Pi
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 81.187.211.44
netmask 255.255.255.240
gateway 81.187.211.33


# ns-rosifolius
# for dns
iface eth0:2 inet static
address 81.187.211.45
netmask 255.255.255.240
gateway 81.187.211.33


# ns-sieboldii

iface eth0:3 inet static
address 90.155.48.136
netmask 255.255.255.224

iface eth0:4 inet static

# strigosus

address 2001:8b0:7c:1::158/64

# idaeus

gateway 2001:8b0:7c:1:1e74:dff:fe51:4749


# ns-rosifolius

iface eth0:7 inet6 static
address 2001:8b0:7c:1::45/64
gateway 2001:8b0:7c:1:1e74:dff:fe51:4749
# gateway 2001:8b0:7c:1:1e74:dff:fe51:4749
# # netmask 64


# ns-sieboldii

gateway 2001:8b0:7c:1:1e74:dff:fe51:4749


This also worked on my new Pi with Raspian Stretch after disabling dhcpcd.  I wanted to do this as the new Pi is to be my new everything server.
