For a global IPv6 address, it wants a prefix length.  Here's an example
of a (presumably working) IPv6 VRRP setup on one of our routers:

    interface GigabitEthernet1/2
     ! ...
     vrrp 254 address-family ipv6
      priority 110
      address FE80::254 primary
      address 2001:620:F1FF:F2F0::254/64
      exit-vrrp

I don't claim to understand this (or the reason why the prefix length is
required for non-link-local addresses.  I'm sure my teammates know! Can
ask them on Monday...
