Ronald, are you seeing the same large packet MTU's?

r...@hardy:~# ip -6 r s default
default via 2607:f3d0:0:4::1 dev eth0  metric 1  expires -1183414sec mtu 1500 
advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295


What appears to be happening to me is that programs (scp, ftp) are using the 
MTU from Lo0 for ipv6 packets. Thus I get packets with sizes much larger then 
MTU

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:1070 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1070 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:79968 (78.0 KB)  TX bytes:79968 (78.0 KB)
