Liang,

Can you try to use the lastest XORP code from the CVS repository. It
contains numerous fixes since xorp-0.5 release. For example, it
contains a new StaticRoutes module (xorp/static_routes) which uses
send_add_route6() to install static IPv6 routes in RIB->FEA->kernel.
I just tested it again and it seems to work.
