I ran into this about a year ago. Cisco docs say things like:

"Restrictions for Implementing IPv6 VPN over MPLS
6VPE supports an MPLS IPv4-signaled core. An MPLS IPv6-signaled core
is not supported."

I found VPNv6 has to be enabled on IPv4 peers, not IPv6. There is no
IPv6 signalled label path, due to their being no implemented LDPv6.
