Maybe upgrades, service packs and updates will make them capable of
using DHCPv6 for useful functions such as finding the address of an
available name server by the time IPv6-only networks are in operation.
And if not, hardcode em. It's not like your usual nameserver will be
behind a nat anyway, and generally, a DNS server is a DNS server.*

* Yes, there are times when your DNS server might be serving active
directory DNS that's not otherwise publicly viewable, but it'll still be
using globally available addressing, and you can restrict queries by IP
address and range, allowing global use of the same nameserver, while
only exposing the AD stuff to your internal network.
