Public bug reported:

3 hosts involved here:
kailan is connected to a cisco switch, which is also connected to kurrat 
(eth3), which is running a bridge with tigernut connected to eth1.

kurrat's controllers are 06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation
82574L Gigabit Network Connection, using the e1000e driver
(3.13.0-65-generic kernel)

(while kailan is doing a ping6 2601:282:8100:3500:82ee:73ff:fe99:368d):

+kurrat 326 : uname -a
Linux kurrat 3.13.0-65-generic #105-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 21 18:50:58 UTC 2015 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Adding a host route for the 2001:: IP via the link IP on kailan works as
a workaround, but the neighbor solicitiation packets are clearly not
getting through the bridge.

No firewall is configured on kurrat.
