Really?  We have not noticed that.  We have a number of customers using
us for outbound relaying and our logs show Google accepting mail over
IPv6 even for domains that lack an SPF record.

Doh, my mistake, it was reverse PTR I was thinking of...

No, You are right:

"Our system has detected that this message does not meet IPv6 sending guidelines regarding PTR records and authentication. Please review https://support.google.com/mail/?p=ipv6_authentication_error <https://support.google.com/mail/?p=ipv6_authentication_error> for more information. "

Even with ptr records and static IPs, etc. we had to add an SPF record to at least 2 domains in April to get Google to accept the email over IPv6. Using IPv4, they did not reject. Not sure what triggers, etc. but that's the reject notice from the SMTP level at Google logged above. Since that time, as a best practice, we have been adding an SPF record to all domains because our servers are dual configured with IPv6 and IPv4.
