Hi,

I can't reproduce this:

$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1
$ ip route get 1234:1234:1:2::/64
1234:1234:1:2:: from :: via fe80::<foo> dev eth0 proto static src <foobar> 
metric 100  pref medium
$ ip route get 1234:1234:1:2::1/64
1234:1234:1:2::1 from :: via fe80::<foo> dev eth0 proto static src <foobar> 
metric 100  pref medium

This is just my desktop with one interface and ipv6 configure via dhcp.
