That interface isn't configured for IPv6. It's just plumbed, and not
marked "up." Do this:
# ifconfig e1000g0 inet6 up
(How did you configure it? The standard system scripts will mark an
interface "up" as part of the initialization process.)

You'll also want to tell that interface to go "up." To do that after
the above command:
# ifconfig e1000g0:1 inet6 up
To do it all as one command:
# ifconfig e1000g0 inet6 addif 7001::25/64 up
