There is a little perl ipv6 calc that I use ipv6calc so I don't mis-typo it.
ipv6calc --addr_to_ip6arpa 2001:1930:c00::2 No input type specified, try autodetection...found type: ipv6addr 2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.c.0.0.3.9.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. The web page is dead, but the ftp download works. http://mirrors.bieringer.de/www.deepspace6.net/projects/ipv6calc.html#id2860191 and of course one can easily run a script to spit out the reverses.
