If those packets are UDP checksum 0, the IPv6 host would either need to be
customized, or something else would need to changed/configured on the 4rd-u
CE specifically to get that to work for specific IPv6 destinations, while
with MAP-t this would be transparent (and not require specific forwarding
rules).
