Just for the record, ifconfig seems to display multiple IPv6 addresses 
just fine:

$ ifconfig eth0

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:30:48:87:0d:fa
          inet addr:64.15.147.134  Bcast:64.15.147.159 
Mask:255.255.255.224
          inet6 addr: 2607:f748:1200:f9::4:1/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: 2607:f748:1200:f9::5:f/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: 2607:f748:1200:f9::2:f/64 Scope:Global
          inet6 addr: 2607:f748:1200:f9::a:1/64 Scope:Global
          ... etc.

This ifconfig hiding of extra addresses appears to be an IPv4-only problem.
