Your assumption is correct. In your case, nothing is really different
from having a normal 6bone connection. If you do normal static routing
with your peer, there is nothing called "a connection" between your
machine and your 6bone connection point. The IPv6 packets are just
prepended with an IPv4 header, and along they go.

So, your connection procedure should be the same as a "normal" 6bone
leaf site.
