Following up on this subject as a FYI.

There is now a working Tun/TAP driver for Windows Vista. It's available from:
http://home.arcor.de/henryn/OpenVPN-2.1beta14-tap32/

See also the forum here:

This works for OpenVPN and at least AICCU's AYIYA implementation and thus allows folks to get IPv6 into their networks using Tunnel Brokers again. Installing this version of the tun32 driver most likely also allows one to use Hexago's TSP client.

Good that somebody else had cycles left to do it, thanks for the work Henry N.! Now I'll try to get some cycles available to maybe implement a proto-41 for Vista support using it, but as I am still in the middle of my move to Dublin I don't think that will come for the next few weeks.

Greets,
