We have noticed that before. What's happening is that one of the RIS 
IPv6 peers is passing an IPv4 full table feed. And that is incorrectly 
causing the visibility of v4 prefixes to be flagged as v6 visibility for 
that peer.
Bug is logged and we intend to correct it soon.
Thanks for the heads up. :)
