But thats exactly the case in a "tor exit that can only be reached by ipv6, but
reach itself ipv4 and ipv6".
Can such a exit be run at the moment? IPv6 can be used on such a exit for
in+out-traffic, IPv4 can be used to reach out everything - its just behind a
NAT.
IPv4-only sites can be reached from the exit. The only case is that the exit
itself can only be reached over IPv6 because of IPv4-NAT.
