[FROG] Should I remove LL IPv6 addresses from BGP peering?

When I do 'show bgp', I see multipath on all my routes... should I try 
to trim down table and only have non-LinkLocal addresses?  Is this 
configurable in bgpd.conf, or should I remove the linkLocal from the 
interaface?

Example:

*= 2001::/32        2001:504:30::ba00:6939:1
                                              0    108      0 6939 i
*                   fe80::ce4e:24ff:fe1f:28d3
                                              0    108      0 6939 i
*>                  fe80::ce4e:24ff:fe1f:28d3
                                              0    108      0 6939 i



(IX has localpref of 108)

Thanks for pointers on best practices with IPv6 and BGP,
Rudy
