Hi,

curiously, i'm facing a similar problem in 2.6.36.1

in my container, when i configure ipv6 adress on the interfaces, 
everything seems good on the first boot of the host. If i shutdown my 
container (lxc), then boot it, i observe the following logs:
Dec  6 17:04:12 suntory.u06.univ-nantes.prive kernel: [  368.192019]

INFO: task lxc-start:3805 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Then i must reboot the host.
The same on kernel 2.6.34, but everything is good on a 2.6.32

Some relvant informations about the kernel:
root@suntory:~# cat /boot/config-2.6.36.1-dsiun-1d | grep -i sysfs
# CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSFS_POWER=y
# CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS is not set
CONFIG_ISCSI_BOOT_SYSFS=m
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_SYSFS=y
root@suntory:~# cat /boot/config-2.6.36.1-dsiun-1d | grep -i net_ns
CONFIG_NET_NS=y

Is there anything in my configuration, i must check in order to get ipv6 
working fully in the container?

Regards.
