So if RFC 2462 is right, and you use DNS outside


        its not.

That is how it has been designed, however there are some practical
problems with this system:

- Until very recently DNS software did not support A6 records at
  all, and "chain" support for A6 records still seems to be a work
  in progress.


        as in -DEAD-  A6 records are DEAD.  not useful.
        not in the code base... DEAD.
