Yes, but my point is that if you don't configure a global (at least non-link-local) prefix on the router interconnections, there's no global address that can be announced as the BGP next-hop. With no global address, the immediate link-local next-hop cannot be resolved in the IGP, and the route is discarded. Or am I missing something?
FWIW, not that it would address your issue -- but about 9 years ago there existed draft-kato-bgp-ipv6-link-local-00, which proposed some mods to BGP in Section 3. I vaguely recall that at least Juniper claims to support this.
