There is a Python extension library called SCAPY that can be
used to generate IPv6 packets, both correctly formed and
incorrectly formed. Because it is built on Python it is 
a fully programmable test data generator.

Read this presentation to see what it can do:
<http://www.secdev.org/conf/scapy-IPv6_HITB06.pdf>
and Google for SCAPY6 to find more info.
