Those are for multicast _routing_, not for the local multicasts you'd need
for routing protocols.

I've used ex and ep interfaces with IPv6, so I know that local multicasts
work with them.

No, that wouldn't show up as a route. You need to tell your Quagga
to listen on the right interface, most likely. Hm, can you tcpdump
on the interface you want and look for the incoming multicast reports?
