Ok - I did the test which SOA records don't actually resolve on an IPv6-only network, and
the only difference is CM, which does have some IPv6 glue, but it servfails:

Sep 05 14:47:45 [2] cm.: Resolved 'cm.' NS cm.cctld.authdns.ripe.net. to: 193.0.9.68, 2001:67c:e0::68
Sep 05 14:47:45 [2] cm.: Trying IP 193.0.9.68:53, asking 'cm.|SOA'
Sep 05 14:47:45 [2] cm.: error resolving, possible error: Operation not permitted
Sep 05 14:47:45 [2] cm.: Trying IP [2001:67c:e0::68]:53, asking 'cm.|SOA'
Sep 05 14:47:45 [2] cm.: cm.cctld.authdns.ripe.net. returned a ServFail, trying sibling IP or NS

That same address replies a SERVFAIL over IPv4 as well (if you allow yourself to access it).

So all in all good news - not only are IPv6 addresses listed for most TLDs, the vast majority
have at least one address that works too ;-)
