Both DNS return AAAA records. I am not sure why this choice of DNS
should make a difference.

host -v ip6.me |grep AAAA
                        IN      AAAA
        9306    IN      AAAA    2001:4838:0:1b::201
host -v ip6.me 8.8.8.8|grep AAAA
                        IN      AAAA
        10800   IN      AAAA    2001:4838:0:1b::201
host -v ip6.me 79.79.79.78|grep AAAA
                        IN      AAAA
        300     IN      AAAA    2001:4838:0:1b::201

I can only speculate that the difference is the order of A and AAAA records 
received. And that is only speculation as I have no evidence that ordering is 
used by some applications.
