Indeed _also_, as the source ASN's can differ between the ASN's
used for announcing the IPv4 and the IPv6 prefix.

Fortunatly, except for currently 4 prefixes, there should not
be something more specific than 2002::/16 per RFC3056.

From GRH:
2002:c2b1:d06e::/48      More specific 6to4 prefix (194.177.208.110/32) from AS5408 
2002:c8a2::/33           More specific 6to4 prefix (200.162.0.0/17) from AS15180 
2002:c8c6:4000::/34      More specific 6to4 prefix (200.198.64.0/18) from AS15180 
2002:c8ca:7000::/36      More specific 6to4 prefix (200.202.112.0/20) from AS15180 

BTW if somebody has a working contact for AS15180, don't mind to
mention it, as they seem quite unresponsive... Others did respond
and cleansed it up btw :)

Greets,
 Jeroen
