Not having looked at your particular 6in4 setup but I can imagine where 
the issue comes from.

Source-based IPv6 routing was introduced a few weeks ago to properly 
support multiple IPv6 uplink-interfaces. Therefore OpenWrt only let's 
you route through the tunnel if it knows you have a suitable source address.

That means you now have to add your routed /64 or /48 in the 6in4 tunnel 
settings (UCI-variable ip6prefix) either through the WebUI or in 
/etc/config/network directly. See: 
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/network6#in4.tunnel.henet.tunnelbroker.sixxs.static.tunnel

In addition configuring the downstream interfaces using ip6addr is not 
supported any more. One has to use the ip6assign/ip6hint/ip6class method 
as described here:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/network6#downstream.configuration.for.lan-interfaces

If you still use ip6addr instead of the new mechanism you might simply 
get "Network Unreachable" errors or - in newer versions - "Source 
address failed ingress/egress policy".


I hope this helps.


Cheers,

Steven
