  |    So what happens is that the echo request is sent out from my host
  | (say it has address X), then I see then Cisco modem (ISP's equipment)
  | make a Neighbor Solicitation for the address X, but my NetBSD router
  | (which knows about address X according to "ndp -a") never replies.

Nor should it, it doesn't own the address.

  |    What do I need to do to make it respond to such requests?

You don't want it to, just assign your addressing rationally, rather than
attempting to cram the world into one /64 (copying horrid IPv4 required hacks)
and I suspect it will all be OK.

Assign a different /64 to your LAN (from the same /48).
