Really? Are there different "ping6" floating around?
Cannot remember that -I needs other than an interface name:
Here on RHL 7.3:
# ping6 -I eth0 fe80::280:c8ff:fe**:****
PING fe80::280:c8ff:fe**:****(fe80::280:c8ff:fe**:****) from
fe80::2e0:18ff:fe9**:**** eth0: 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fe80::280:c8ff:fe**:****: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.201
