except that the IPv6 reverse delegation is still not quite right; I think 
dns.uwa.edu.au still thinks that it is authoritative for 
0.8.0.4.4.9.0.7... (i.e ...:7094:4080), and this takes preference over the 
delegation (which is for ...:7094:408*).

(Use the following to see the difference:
dig -t SOA +trace 0.8.0.4.4.9.0.7.8.8.3.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa
dig -t SOA +trace 8.0.4.4.9.0.7.8.8.3.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa
)
