        Well firstly these address will appear outside of IPv6 packets
        in environments where they will be automatically processed along
        with every other IPv6 address that is being processed.  The
        place that it processing the addresses may or may not be able
        to reach the ULA-C servers for the reverse lookup.

        It really should be up to the *user* of the ULA-C addresses
        to decide if they want to provide more than NXDOMAIN to
        interested parties on the Internet.  We shouldn't be
        arbitarially limiting functionality if it is technically
        possible to provide that functionality.
