Lots of people roll FreeBSD with Quagga/pf/ipfw for dual stack. See the freebsd-isp list.

FreeBSD's network stack chokes up in DDoS attacks due to interrupt flooding. We used to use FreeBSD for firewalling and basic routing, but when noticing that we had horizontal scalability (e.g. a Celeron 667mhz performed nearly as well as a dual dual-core Xeon system when DDoS attacks happened), we switched to Vyatta, and generally have not looked back.
