Shorewall 4.4.6 is almost two years old and had not been tried on IPv6.
So it isn't surprising that it doesn't work. If I look at the history of
changes to the Providers module, much of the IPv6 code was added/changed
in April/May of this year. 

I see that Oneiric has 4.4.21 which should work much better for you.
