IPv6 has its own ethertype. (0x86DD) see the list:

We've also encountered old IOSes that didn't forward Ethernet frames
that contained IPv6 payload.

Dumb question.. what does the switch (L2) have to do with IPv6 (L3),
or is it one of those 'somewhere in between the two' things?

Well, that's another problem.
To make a long story short, the network (not mine and I don't have
any kind of
control over that either) that my customers (including me) are using,
did put
in new equipment (a switch) over a year ago and after that I lost my
IPv6
connection that I had previously. That switch does not support IPv6
it turns
out.
