The strict filter is still broken in at least one way.

ipv6 prefix-list ipv6-ebgp-strict permit 2001:500::/30 ge 48 le 48

http://www.arin.net/reference/micro_allocations.html

Note that there are /45's, /46's, /47's and /48's right now.  The
filter allows only /48's.  Of note, this will break access to the
F-Root name server, we announce it from both a /47 and a /48 (local
peers only) in IPv6.

I believe there are other issues with the strict filter, but don't have
the time to track them down right now.
