With a kernel built just moments ago, I still have the same issue.  I
have an older kernel, however, that works perfectly fine:

FreeBSD server.mcneil.com 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #78: Tue Nov  1 23:07:02 PST 2005     root_at_server.mcneil.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/AMD64  amd64

With this kernel I can ping6 my dc0 interface just fine.  That should
help narrow things down a bit.

Cheers,
Sean
