To make a long short, that depends on your glibc version. As far as I 
remember, RFC3484 was implemented in version 2.4. Configurable policy in 
version 2.5, and Teredo in the default policy only very recently.

Because Teredo is not mentioned in RFC3484, I expect many other RFC3484 
implementations do have the same issue. Unfortunately, even if they don't 
have Teredo support themselves, they should still recognize the prefix for 
source address selection...
I did write an I-D to allocate one new prefix, but then I realized that the 
revised RFC3484 draft work already mentioned it, so I did not bother 
submitting it.

In your particular case, did you try to add

label		2001:0::/32	7
precedence 	2001:0::/32	5

to /etc/gai.conf ?
