sipa just pushed out IPv6 support to bitcoin/bitcoin.git, and we have
a few IPv6 nodes live on the network already.

If you have IPv6, please pull the latest bitcoin and test!

(and if you do not yet have IPv6, visit https://www.sixxs.net/ and get some)

Since yesterday, my DNS seeder (running at seed.bitcoin.sipa.be)  also
crawls the IPv6 network, and returns corresponding AAAA records.
Hopefully this helps IPv6 nodes to find eachother.

I can confirm this seems to work quite well now. I tried running an
IPv6-only node a few days ago, and with the default seeds it couldn't
start up and sync with the network unless I manually created a dual-net
node and manually added it. Now things work just fine out of the box and
last I checked I had 5 peers.
