The only other way of fixing this or ensuring no breaking is a DNS
whitelist type of filter like what Google does.
I wouldn't encourage that, but if your eyeball networks are that
paranoid, that's a way, how they can be in control. They could then
choose not to provide AAAA records to 6to4- and teredo- clients.
Anyhow .. that's a hack and not to be encouraged, really.
