Terry Moes and I have submitted this draft (actually version -01) which describes how NPTv6 translators need to process ICMPv6 error messages. We believe that this issue was first discovered when Terry built an NPTv6 implementation for Linux.
We intend to request publication as an individual submission, but first we would really appreciate your review comments. Regards, // Steve

Title : ICMP Handling in IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation Author(s) : Steven Blake Terry Moes Filename : draft-blake-nptv6-icmp-01.txt Pages : 9 Date : 2012-01-28 NPTv6 is a stateless, transport-agnostic IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation function that provides the address-independence benefit associated with IPv4-to-IPv4 NAT without some of that mechanism's drawbacks. NPTv6 is intended to be deployed in environments where a host might not know its "external" network prefix(es). In such an environment, a NPTv6 device must also translate network prefixes present in in-bound and out-bound ICMPv6 error message payloads. This document describes the required processing of ICMPv6 error messages.
