I do not understand the reason for using only single-stack nameservers:
6.2. How to deploy DNS data.
...
It is recommended that the name servers run on single stack
machines, i.e. machines that are only able to utilize either IPv4
transport or IPv6 transport, but not both.
Also, some of the suggestions, e.g.
4.1. Requirement of IPv4 address for at least one name server.
seem to beg a reference to rfc 2182. By recommending "at least one"
name server reachable from a particular version of IP, the effect for
hosts that use that version of IP exclusively is that zones are
configured with only one nameserver.
