We've had bad luck with IPv6 VACLs on 6500/sup720 in the one place we 
tried them (VACL capture). I can't remember the caveats, but it's 
something to do with needing to enable "mac packet-classify" and that 
blowing away most of the useful VACL features. sup32 is similar enough 
in principle (i.e. it uses a PFC3) that I imagine the same caveats apply.

Check into this in detail if it's important to you.
