I think that got fixed in earlier versions.
# ip6tables -L | grep state
ACCEPT all anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
ACCEPT all anywhere anywhere state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
So it's clear the options are now availale.
And for a lot of things it works OK. That's why I think the problem
may be fragmentation related, and the fragments aren't being properly
reassembled for the ip6tables to pass them through.
