When I tested, adding a family inet6 address (even just link-local) to 
the vlan l3-interface allowed IPv6 to work on that VLAN with 
igmp-snooping enabled.  I didn't explicitly test ipv6 multicast 
applications, other than the implicit multicast used by neighbor 
discovery, router advertisements, etc.  I'm not using mld.
