Im using Hurricane Electric as well,
When you login to HE they have a link for an example config generation, this
is what I used. I had some problems with the handbook as well.
My rc.conf:
... snip ...
gif_interfaces="gif0 gif1" # IPv6 tunnel
gifconfig_gif0="63.226.12.96 64.71.128.82" # IPv4 tunnel for IPv6 tunnel
ipv6_enable="YES" # Set to YES to set up for IPv6.
ipv6_network_interfaces="rl0 gif0" # List of network interfaces.
ipv6_defaultrouter="2001:470:1F00:FFFF::22E" # Set to IPv6 default gateway
ipv6_ifconfig_rl0="2001:470:1F00:379::1" # assigned from my /64to a nic
ipv6_ifconfig_gif0="2001:470:1F00:FFFF::22F 2001:470:1F00:FFFF::22E prefixlen
128" <--- wrapped, should be on the above line.
... snip ...
My Assigned Prefix: 2001:470:1F00:379::/64
# ifconfig gif0
gif0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1280
tunnel inet 63.226.12.96 --> 64.71.128.82
inet6 fe80::2c0:f0ff:fe2a:aa7c%gif0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8
inet6 2001:470:1f00:ffff::22f --> 2001:470:1f00:ffff::22e prefixlen 128
Is your firewall blocking ipv6?
# /etc/rc.firewall6 open
Don't leave this open after you get the tunnel working.

ping their ipv6 end point of the tunnel:
# ping6 2001:470:1F01:FFFF::DD2 (you sure its /127 and not /128?)
If you don't get replies then there is a problem with the tunnel.

Last I knew, freenode has all HE ipv6 blocked because of abuse. This might
have been lifted, I don't use ipv6 for irc.
