I can see only two ways to handle those

 - run a local relay to send 2002::/16 -> ipv4 world

 - drop these packets, hard

No one *can* effectively use anycast 6to4, which was the whole point of
the depreciation RFC.

It needs to die, horribly, in flames.  Anyone using it needs to feel the
pain of enabling a broken protocol.  ISPs need to have their customers
call the help desk if they enable 6to4 on customer routers or in their
own network, instead of deploying proper IPv6.

(Note that 6rd is not "anycast 6to4" and as thus not subject to this
rant)
