Search the Apple discussion boards for IPv6, and you will see that
a lot of people are turning off IPv6 entirely on their computers to
work around the connectivity issues involved here.
I've already mentioned in private email but will re-iterate here.
This is a problem caused by the CPE (the Airport in this case) not
erring on the side of caution. These devices really need to leave
6to4 disabled and not allow autoconfiguration unless they can verify
there is a reachable 6to4 relay.
Perhaps in a revised spec it can INSIST on the pingability of the
6to4 relay so that CPEs can perform a keepalive check in determining
whether to keep IPv6 autoconfiguration enabled.
