% 	I think:
% 	- it should be okay to deploy AAAA records to certain degree
% 	- we need to be very conservative about deplying A6 records,
% 	  as A6 presents highly different behavior than A/AAAA records.
% 	  # of queries would increase, # of additoinal records would
% 	  go skyrocket.
% 
% 	about AAAA:
% 

	AAAA record support has been around since 4.9.6 (if memory
	serves).   There should be no reason to not deploy AAAA
	records (in the general sense) if there is a need.
	No harm at all to those "hundreds" of "antique" v4 servers
	that are out there.
