We keep running into problem with our IPv6 roll out.  I just confirmed
today that Exchange does not fully support IPv6

You can also use IPv6 privacy extensions (by default on Windows 7),

In the context of "addresses I'm using to manage kit", having devices 
randomly renumber themselves at regular intervals does *not* sound 
like it's going to make my life easy :(

In IPv4 most people use static assignments for servers, and often use
dynamic assignments for client hosts (e.g., DHCP). The IPv6 world is not
different. If you don't want privacy addresses for your servers (and
it's unlikely that you would) you just make sure that they are not
enabled.
