Fwd: ipfw, pipes, queues, and IPv6

[Folks, I posted this to ipfw@ last week, but had no takers over there.  
Anyone here want to take a stab at it?  Thanks in advance!]

I am looking for a little sanity check here.  I have a gif tunnel set up for 
IPv6, and I am passing protocol 41 through the ipfw pipe/queue mechanism 
to/from my tunnel provider (part of a grander pipe/queue scheme due to my 
new Vonage service :).  A couple of questions:

1) Am I correct in assuming that all IPv6 traffic that I am permitting via
ip6fw is governed by the pipe/queue rules that I have configured for 
protocol 41 in ipfw?

2) If #1 is true, is there a way for me to use pipes/queues within ip6fw
itself to discriminate by type of IPv6 traffic?

Thanks for the info!
