The only way is to publish the availability of IPv6 services. Get more
people interested and get more out in the open that certain software
behaves badly when confronted with ipv6 requests to put the blame on the
software.

I think there are quite a number of potential IPv6 pool servers out there.
I also think the 'IPv4' pool and 'IPv6' pool would be separate beasts
because IPv4/IPv6 network paths can differ greatly.
But, as with any IPv6 implementation: what needs to be tested first is to
see whether stuff breaks when the answer for pool.ntp.org could have an
AAAA record. What happens when the answer for pool.ntp.org contains one or
two AAAA records and my IPv6 connectivity is subtly broken?
