Recap of the issue:
s = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
connect(s, [fec0::203:baff:fe88:5a15]:1554) => EINPROGRESS
Put socket in select's write set
Kernel sends TCPv6 SYN
Kernel receives ICMPv6 Time Exceeded (routing error)
Socket becomes writable
getsockopt(s, SO_ERROR) => EHOSTUNREACH
connect(s, [:ffff:192.168.168.241]:1554) => ECONNABORTED
Okay I've attached a fairly small repro. Sorry it's not smaller but it
takes a few lines of code to do the required setup. The trickier part of
the setup is probably getting a ICMPv6 Time Exceeded error. My particular
setup was using vtun for an IPv6 route through a dumb switch and a bogus
route on the remote vtun endpoint, but there are surely other ways to get
this error.
The app expects you to specify an IPv6 address, an IPv4 address (glibc's
inet_pton requires it be in V4MAPPED form), a port, and a nonblocking value.
The addresses don't necessarily need to be for the same host.
Results for kernel 2.6.9 and 2.6.10-rc2 are the same, as follows:
$ gcc -Wall -o dualconnect dualconnect.c
$ ./dualconnect fec0::203:baff:fe88:5a15 ::ffff:192.168.168.241 22 1
async connect to fec0::203:baff:fe88:5a15 returned No route to host
sync connect to ::ffff:192.168.168.241 returned Software caused connection abort
async connect to ::ffff:192.168.168.241 returned Success
$ ./dualconnect fec0::203:baff:fe88:5a15 ::ffff:192.168.168.241 22 0
sync connect to fec0::203:baff:fe88:5a15 returned No route to host
sync connect to ::ffff:192.168.168.241 returned No route to host
sync connect to ::ffff:192.168.168.241 returned Transport endpoint is already connected
In the nonblocking case (which we use, and prompted the report), the socket
appears to correct its internal state and the second IPv4 connect succeeds.
In the blocking case, the socket appears to actually connect even though it
reports an error. I just discovered this today because I was hoping to get
a smaller repro by avoiding using select. :-/

Don't get suckered in by the comments -- they can be terribly misleading.
Debug only code.
