Well, from what I can see (and thanks to Antonio Querebin for pointing
this out), the Cisco's currently don't do MBGP over IPv6 - But Zebra does.
So if you have a box that can run IPv6, you might look at installing Zebra
and trying that out.

For IPv4 MBGP, my Cisco has this:

router bgp 818
!
etc
!
 address-family ipv4 multicast
 redistribute ospf 818
 neighbor 142.92.10.82 activate
 neighbor 142.92.10.82 send-community
 neighbor 142.92.39.75 activate
 neighbor 142.92.39.75 send-community
 neighbor 205.189.32.218 activate
 neighbor 205.189.32.218 next-hop-self
 neighbor 205.189.32.218 send-community
 neighbor 205.189.32.218 soft-reconfiguration inbound
 neighbor 205.189.32.218 route-map Set_Community out
 bgp dampening
 network 142.62.0.0
 network 142.92.0.0
 network 192.75.72.0
 aggregate-address 142.62.0.0 255.255.0.0 summary-only
 aggregate-address 142.92.0.0 255.255.0.0 summary-only
 exit-address-family
!

This is on 12.1(7).
