How are ISPs that still offer dialup going to handle dialup and IPv6? I know the TNTs don't do it, and I don't think most of the old equipment in use in many places does.
Most likely the customers still on dialup are not going to worry about IPv6 - if their systems even support it. In fact several operators I have spoken to have considered their legacy dialup plant as a good place to test Carrier Grade NAT in a low impact manner.
Couple it with some kind of ALG (transparent proxy + DNS tricks) for IPv6-only sites and you have something which might work.
If you really need native IPv6 support for dialup then using a legacy NAS as a dial-terminator LAC and tunneling to an IPv6 capable LNS might be a solution for you.
