The LetsEncrypt folks recently asserted that they had "Full Support for IPv6".

I went to try to test this assertion with the test harness running on 
SmartOS...  as a single stacked IPv6 host (no IPv4, resolvers set up as IPv6).

base-64 / 16.2.0 came up apparently working fine, but then I wasn't able to 
install nginx or anything because, well, Joyent infrastructure isn't reachable 
over IPv6.

merlot:~ rs$ dig +short pkgsrc.joyent.com a
72.2.118.211
merlot:~ rs$ dig +short pkgsrc.joyent.com aaaa
merlot:~ rs$ 

I seem to recall reading about management of the global zone over IPv6 
recently...  but it looks like it won't be able to survive without at least 
some IPv4 connectivity, at least not if you want to import any images...

merlot:~ rs$ dig +short images.joyent.com a
64.30.133.39
merlot:~ rs$ dig +short images.joyent.com aaaa
merlot:~ rs$ 

Any chance that the Joyent infrastructure is on the roadmap to get dual stacked 
anytime in the near future?

By the way, a single stacked IPv6 LX zone seemed a bit unhappy (tested with 
ubuntu-14.04  20160601, couldn't even ping stuff on the same subnet).  Anyone 
else tried this?

Thanks,
