There is something not quite right though, at least for me.  I've
watched IPv6 funnies with wireshark. (The trace is attached in the
bugzilla below.)

I'm seeing a problem with lost packets (and hangs) when talking to yum
mirrors over ipv6.  Moving from a static handconfigured tunnel to an
automatic tunnel fixed things, but only because the IPv6 connection is
now no longer as well prefered by programs as the ipv4 connection.

Maybe there is a general tunnel or just ipv6 problem in the kernel that
folks are just starting to see since IPv6 is just starting to be used by
more linux users?

If the airwaves belong to the public why does the public only get 3
non-overlapping WIFI channels?
