If they really are interesting problems, it might be more to the
point to analyse them over on v6ops. Given the number of large
IPv6 deployments that don't have such problems, it seems like
this particular deployment hit an unfortunate combination of
implementation issues. That is worth understanding (for example,
how large is the layer 2 network that leads to the MLD listener
report overload?).

Implementing MLD snooping for Solicited-Node multicast addresses 
is probably a bad idea.
