      ah... but the trick is to only need enough IPv4 in the pool
      to dynamically talk to the Internet.  Native v6 to Native v6
      never has to drop back to the Internet, It uses native v6
      paths.  So the larger the v6 uptake, the fewer Internet addreses
      you'll need to keep around in your pool.

Ok, it wasn't clear in the docs that it was a dynamic translation from
v6 to a smaller pool of v4 IPs, it implied it was a direct translation.
