There are many zones (including your isc.org) that have several name
servers dual-stacked, and they didn't notice a problem. Furthermore,
since the DNS is a tree, resolution of google.com requires a proper
resolution of the root and .com, both having IPv6 name servers.
So, this answer is at least insufficient.
