6to4 is enabled by default via the stock Debian Lenny install. I see from
documentation that there are ways to summon it via /etc/network/interfaces,
but I have not created any tunnels. As you see from my ifconfig, the global
and link-address both show up. It's only when running ipv6calc and other
tools that I get the shorter number.

http://www.wlug.org.nz/6to4

points me to how to deal with this. However, it still appears to be pebcak,
and it may be as simple as not defining the IPv6 address in
/etc/network/interfaces as I am now reading. Now to determine the gateway,
and we should be good to go. Without this definition, a 6to4 conversion is
attempted.
