Go visit http://www.kfu.com/~nsayer/6to4/noipv4.html . This page
describes how you can get rid of IPv4 within the enterprise.
Unfortunately, Windows still poses a bit of an obstacle (I attempted to
implement BIA and immediately lost the ability to sign into the domain

smooth sailing (the machine I'm typing on now has no IPv4 address).
