Hi Adam (and Adam),

Seems easy enough to reproduce, assuming that my substitution of '-s' for '-l' 
is legit.

jims-mini:~ jim$ ping6 -s 1232 redmine.pfsense.org
PING6(1280=40+8+1232 bytes) 2610:160:11:33:84b5:f958:6545:af1c -->

jims-mini:~ jim$ ping6 -s 1233 redmine.pfsense.org
PING6(1281=40+8+1233 bytes) 2610:160:11:33:84b5:f958:6545:af1c -->

Note that I'm … "really close".  

jims-mini:~ jim$ traceroute6 redmine.pfsense.org
traceroute6 to redmine.pfsense.org (2610:160:11:3::100) from 
2610:160:11:33:84b5:f958:6545:af1c, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets

jims-mini:~ jim$ 

Given same, it almost has to be the pfSense box, since once I'm on redmine, 
huge packets pass.

That said, I'm on redmine with IPvFoo loaded, and it's reporting that I'm 
hitting the IPv6 site, and I'm not having any issues.

We'll look into it and get back to you.
