Far more likely that they have some specific DHCPv6 or other feature requirement that may or may not be present in all 
IPv6 CPE and they won't promise that other CPE will work and don't want to have to maintain a laundry list and support 
customers that don't understand.

So i have been privately referred to att.com/ipv6 where you can find supporting CPE devices. 

It sounds like if you have equipment supporting ipv6 it may just appear one day "soon".

That's slightly depressing.  From their Residential Q&A:
Devices supporting IPv6

Pace 4111N 
Netgear 7550 B90 
Netgear 6200 A90 
Motorola 3360

Only AT&T-certified versions of the devices listed above will be able to
utilize IPv6 on the AT&T network.

I have my own DSL modem, that I know has IPv6 support.  Will AT&T be doing
some sort of wizardry to ensure it will work for their CPE, but not mine?
