Bjoern, I've just changed "ip6.addr = 2001:470:ecba:3::4/64" to
"ip6.addr = 2001:470:ecba:3::4/128" per your advice, and restarted the
jails, without any visible result. The daemons inside still listen only
on tcp4:

root at test4:/ # sockstat -l
USER     COMMAND    PID   FD PROTO  LOCAL ADDRESS         FOREIGN ADDRESS      
root     sendmail   18711 3  tcp4   192.168.4.204:25      *:*
root     sshd       18708 3  tcp4   192.168.4.204:22      *:*
root     syslogd    18643 5  udp4   192.168.4.204:514     *:*
root     syslogd    18643 6  dgram  /var/run/log
root     syslogd    18643 7  dgram  /var/run/logpriv
root at test4:/ #

Still does, but no use:

root at test4:/ # ifconfig re1
re1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        description: Inside
        options=8209b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
        ether c4:12:f5:33:c9:7c
        inet 192.168.4.204/24 broadcast 192.168.4.255
        inet6 2001:470:ecba:3::4/128
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
root at test4:/ #
