This runs into trouble with DNSsec since DNSsec signs RRsets.
Thus the DNS server would need a SIG for AAAA/A6 with site locals
and another SIG for AAAA/A6 without the site-locals.
Also, this has problem with recursive queries at least when the
recursing name server runs on a box that belongs to two different
site-local zones.
