I'm ccing to the bind9-users ML in case that my understanding is wrong.

You don't have to drop your configuration. The removal actually
means:
- caching servers will not try to fetch or use A6 glues for delegation.
- authoritative servers will not attach A6 RRs in the additional
section.
- BIND9 lwresd will not use A6 to resolve a name to IPv6 addresses.
- allow-v6-synthesis will be deprecated.
However,
+ authoritative servers will still respond to queries for A6 RRs.
+ a zone that has A6 RRs will still be loaded successfully.
+ zone transfer will still succeed even if the zone has A6 RRs.
I don't know if you regard the change as historic or experimental, but
I for one think this is a reasonable deal (as experimental).
