In the normal startup, I see this line, which I don't see in the rebind log:

This should be fixed by this change:

But I've also had reports of it causing dhcpcd-6 to segfault.
As you're using Gentoo, can I get you to test the latest dhcpcd-7 and dhcpcd-9999 ebuilds please?

And after rebind, `route -6n` contains no routes with next hops
defined.  Hence, no routing to ipv6 nets.  Is this a bug, or am I
misconfigured somewhere?

No, it's a bug, hopefully fixed as dhcpcd-7 has had quite a lot of work with prefix delegation.

I'm currently packing for two weeks in Spain and may not have a chance to look at this more until I get back.
