Since these were Windows machines on a domain, I ended up editing the
registry on a handful of PCs that needed access to the website - the
registry hack told the OS to prefer IPv4 over IPv6. It's a suitable
solution until I can get native IPv6 from my ISP (currently tunneled
through HE).
For those who might be interested in the patch:

So my dual stack config seems to work pretty good, however there are a
few websites (in this case a US government one) that blocks ICMP which
results in MTU problems and the site not loading over IPv6 when using an
IPv6 tunnel like I am (my ISP doesn't provide native IPv6). Is there a
way I can tell my MT router to use IPv4 for certain websites without
simply disabling IPv6 on the client?
The easiest way to do this is the force the clients to use a DNS server
that won't return AAAA records for the websites in question. Not sure
how you'd accomplish this if it is multiple domains or if the domains
you are interested in use a load balanced approach.
