This is why I need to pull logs the next time I need to pay the FCC. There are several rounds of redirects involved from clicking the payment button on the FCC site to the final landing at pay.gov, and one of the last steps never connects if IPv6 is enabled. Matthew Kaufman (Sent from my iPhone)

Still broken, 7 months later. And again, I was too busy trying to pay to tr y to pull a full set of logs. But if you do something on the FCC site that requires payment, the redirection flow dies halfway through if you're comin g from IPv6 and works fine if you turn it off... so yet another computer in the house has IPv6 disabled until manually turned back on.
FWIW, eftps.gov is also unreachable via ipv6. I tried all of miredo, and my home Sixxs tunnel, and a HE tunnel from somewhere else. I used the 4or6 plugin to temporarily disable ipv6 and both sites loaded straight away.
If a site is unreachable your client should switch to IPv4 unless a IPv6 literal has been used.
If your client take ages to switch over report a bug to the client vendor.
It should not take ages to switch between multiple server addresses. IPv4 + IPv6 is just a example of multiple server addresses.
eftps.gov and pay.gov appear to be managed separately since both their ipv4 and ipv6 netblocks are not in the same netblocks, and my path to them is not the same:

I was hoping an eftps.gov or pay.gov employee was casting an eye this way, but it doesn't look like anybody from there is subscribed to NANOG.
