Can you pls replace one of the URLs below with actual IPv6 address and that should drive Teredo usage on Vista up. Windows Vista does not issue

What do you mean by "actual IPv6 address"? I should put in the URL as http://[2a00:801::f]... etc? That breaks my vhost config on the webserver I'm using for this experiment.

AAAA queries if the only IPv6 address it has is a Teredo address. Windows Vista will issue AAAA query if it has a 6to4 or native IPv6 address though. This will explain the relative usage of 6to4 and Teredo that you are seeing. Thanks.

What is the rationale behind this, and why was it changed from the XP behaviour which I find quite reasonable?
