Got Squid 3HEAD built and working, which has proper IPv6 support, including being able to connect to IPv6 sites and proxy that back to IPv4 only clients. (And ipv6->proxy->ipv6-site too.
Fiddled with NS/AAAA records today, i'll have to wait for them to propogate overnight and then I can try running V6 only DNS on my local linux box, since several of the root DNS servers now have AAAA/IPv6 connectivity, you can now (in theory) look up AAAA records over IPv6 (DNS). Since my linux box has ipv6 connectivity and BIND, I can run reverse/DNS here.
Now, you're not suppose to do that, since DSL links arn't exactly reliable, but since all the V6 DNS records are for machines on the LAN, it's not too important.

Now if only ISP's here offered native IPv6. Grr.
