        There are 1-2 commits that fix this problem in IPV6
but as the fixes are not part of the IPVS files I'm not sure
which stable kernels include them. You need at least this fix:

commit 96dc809514fb2328605198a0602b67554d8cce7b
Date:   Sun Oct 20 15:43:03 2013 +0300
ipv6: always prefer rt6i_gateway if present

        Look for changes in include/net/ip6_route.h,
rt6_nexthop().
