Problems w/IPv6 router address

[aardvark at vcn.bc.ca]

Hi there...I'm trying to build an IPv6 tunnel broker in Linux using bird
as a routing daemon, and I'm running into trouble.  Right now I'm just trying
to make sure that I can add IPv6 tunnels/devices manually, and I keep
getting the error "Router IDs must be entered as hexadecimal numbers or
IPv4 addresses in IPv6 version".  I've tried adding addresses in these
forms:

router id 3ffe:1200:3028:ff01:0000:0000:0000:124e;
router id 3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e;
router id 0x3ffe12003028ff01000000000000124e;

What am I missing?
