In the unfolded dump you sent to me privately, the routing is not okay;
the 'local' table is virtually empty. With this local routing table, ir
is likely that you can't even ping6 the local IPv6 addresses from the
firewall itself.

Table local:

local ::1 via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436 advmss 16376
hoplimit 4294967295
ff00::/8 dev eth1  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295
ff00::/8 dev eth0  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295

Curiously, the routing table in the folded dump that you forwarded with
your initial report looked better.

Table local:

local ::1 via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436 advmss 16376
hoplimit 4294967295
local 2001:470:1f09:ac6:: via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436
advmss 16376 hoplimit 4294967295
local 2001:470:1f09:ac6::2 via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436
advmss 16376 hoplimit 4294967295
local 2001:470:1f09:ac6:206:4fff:fe38:fa78 via :: dev lo  proto none
metric 0  mtu 16436 advmss 16376 hoplimit 4294967295
local 2001:470:9363:: via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436
advmss 16376 hoplimit 4294967295
local 2001:470:9363::1 via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436

hoplimit 4294967295
local fe80:: via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  mtu 16436 advmss 16376

16436 advmss 16376 hoplimit 4294967295
ff02::1 via ff02::1 dev eth1  metric 0
    cache  mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295
ff02::1 via ff02::1 dev eth0  metric 0
    cache  mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295
ff00::/8 dev eth0  metric 256  mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295

I have seen the local routing table get messed up like this but only
when running the Lenny vserver kernel; happens when stopping/starting
vservers. Don't know how it happens running a stock kernel.
