I forgot to mention I've explicitly disabled ip6 link-local addresses
on my machine, via the following sysctl:

net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal: 0

ifconfig doesn't display 'tunnel' for your GRE interfaces, this is
the problem I'm talking about. Not being able to see the addresses used
in the encapsulating IP header is a bug.
