SIXXs web-traceroute truncates long IPv6 Adresses

Hello,
when I use https://www.sixxs.net/tools/traceroute/ to trace back to
my IPv6 machines, some of the IPv6 addresses are truncated (from the
right side).
This might be only an aesthetic issue, but I have discovered that
the truncated address is used for the reverse DNS lookup. So
for my router address on the subnet (which is PREFIX::0), the
reverse DNS works ok, but not for the machines in the subnet that
generate their IP-Adress from the RA and the phyisical Address
(so no :: shortcut)
Any plans to fix this?
