Only one neighbor entry shows up.  Eg, one of our routers shows the 
following from snmpwalk:

15.3.1.7.32.1.8.56 = IpAddress: 32.1.8.56
15.3.1.7.32.1.14.0 = IpAddress: 32.1.14.0
15.3.1.7.32.1.24.136 = IpAddress: 32.1.24.136
15.3.1.7.32.1.72.48 = IpAddress: 32.1.72.48

However, there are actually 17 IPv6 BGP peers on that router - 12 of which 
are apparently overlapping on the 32.1.24.136 entry above.
