Something else is odd here, too. The box the 6to4 relay is running on 
has IOS 12.4(5) and does Netflow v9 export to the current nfdump/nfsen 
beta (_very_ nice tool btw). I see tons of flows with source 2002::/16 
and ingress interface = 6to4 tunnel (almost 40k flows today between 6am 
and 11pm), but only one flow with 2002:42EB:B46B::2 ... as destination 
address when I tested it from my box here.

My guess is that they don't use the anycast address (maybe because it 
gets routed to Europe) but a hardcoded relay. Which is broken. Nothing 
more to say without a trace from their side.
