It's actually pretty well known and it is documented in several places in plain sight.
Where? A search for IPV6_V6ONLY in the FreeBSD Handbook yields nothing. You'd think the brokenness would at least be mentioned in the handbook. A similar search of the FreeBSD FAQ yields a bunch of hits but none that really mention the RFC brokenness. The only place where I've seen this behaviour mentioned in the past is in bug reports. And the responses to those were that the non-compliant behaviour was preferred but would/should be more clearly documented. Years later, the documentation is still lacking.
