Thanks, Luigi.

I've just published -04, which includes your changes except the following

Since we only define v4-via-v6, once you're in v6 land you stay there.  If
we were to ever define v6-via-v4 (which I'm not advocating), then you
could in principle alternate between the two domains, which would likely
lead to an increase in nervous breakdowns among network administrators.

I'm not too keen on expanding on this statement, since I have no
operational experience with recursive v4-via-v6, and I'm afraid I'll say
something wrong.  So please let me take the low-risk path of not saying
anything more about recursion, at least until we get some operational
experience with recursion together with v4-via-v6.

Thanks again,
