ICMPv6 is not the same protocol as ICMP, it has other differences than the IP protocol header. ping6 simply can not send ICMP requests and would not understand ICMP replies.
When I try it in openSUSE, Wireshark shows the computer sending the packet to the router, which returns an unreachable error.
This is strange, ping6 does not even send the packet to the network for me. sendto() returns with an error. What is the exact command you were running? Can you please attach the tcpdump/wireshark dump?
