Been using that on the advanced networks side for ... OK, years.  Seems to 
work.  Kept unseemingly bogons like 1000::/3 out, except for the 
deprecated 6bone pTLA, 3FFF::

For leaks of old 6bone space, which I haven't seen for a long while, 
probably not.  But filter aginst that, and maybe it will be fine.  It's 
all in the RIR allocations....

Mmm...Last table entry in my table is: 2C0F:FE18::/32.  Maybe 2000::/4 
will do, but that might not last very long as an ACL, given the proximty 
of 2Cxx:: to 2FFF::
