That's to be expected (for fe80::/10, at least).

How did you resolve raff to fe80::21f:c6ff:fe88:3d6e ? Is it in DNS or
in your /etc/hosts file ?

You probably don't want to put link local addresses in DNS. Using them
in /etc/hosts is fine, but you should add a scope (the %vic0) to the
address.

You shouldn't do that.

How exactly did you change the route for fe80::/10 ?

Of course, so isn't that your answer ?

| # ping6 fe80::21f:c6ff:fe88:3d6e%vic0
| PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) fe80::20c:29ff:fe4d:9745%vic0 -->
| fe80::21f:c6ff:fe88:3d6e%vic0
| 16 bytes from fe80::21f:c6ff:fe88:3d6e%vic0, icmp_seq=0 hlim=128 time=0.363
| ms

Maybe I'm missing the issue, but what's wrong with this last option ?
Or adding %vic0 to your /etc/hosts entry for raff ? Maybe an even
better solution would be to get real IPv6 address space from some
tunnelbroker (SiXXS comes to minde) and configure your machine and
'raff' with globally unique addresses so you don't have this issue at
all ?
