    if i try to log into my machines back in tokyo by IPv6 SSH, it takes
    very long time.  i guess i found the reason - (possible) lame delegation
    of blah.ip6.int.  ip6.arpa. query returns instantly.
    how could we fix it?
By fixing the software as ip6.int was deprecated 2 years+++
ago as you should already know.

        for backward compatibility reasons many software do
                query ip6.arpa;
                if (not found)
                        query ip6.int;
        i'm not too sure if we can remove the "query ip6.int" part today.
