Oh bugger, it seems the problem was between keyboard and chair.
I tested this on a production machine, and moved some rule numbers.
Forgot that I had a skipto rule somewhere and did not update that rule
number...

Anyway, I'm still interested to hear how others handle fragmented IPv6
traffic (off-topic: any pointers to why it is fragmented are appreciated
too).

In particular, I'm still interested in these answers:
