The example in sysctl.conf for ipv6 forwarding is incorrect.
You probably want:

  # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv6
  #net/ipv6/conf/all/forwarding=1

For consistency you may also want to change the ipv4 example to match (I
believe that conf/all/forwarding is equivalent to ip_forward):

  # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4
  #net/ipv4/conf/all/forwarding=1

Wishlist: consider using "." rather than "/" as a delimiter, since this
is what sysctl uses on output.  If nothing else, choosing one style over
the other, rather than mixing the two:

  #kernel.domainname = example.com
  #net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts=1
