RFC 4213 (Basic Transition Mechanisms for IPv6 Hosts and Routers) is
Standards Track and defines dual stack.

It should be easy enough to have an RFC that updates it.

Though a question is whether that should be done here or in v6ops. It is
not really new IPv6 protocol, just a small change to how existing protocols
are deployed.
