I'm not sure I parse this phrase correctly. For clarity:
A DNS server can run on a IPv6 socket; clients can connect to
DNS-servers through IPv6. However, as there are no IPv6 root servers
currently, if you want to do that then at least one host in your network
will need both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address.
On the other hand, your clients can also use IPv4 to resolve IPv6 domain
names; you don't have to query a DNS server through IPv6 to be able to
resolv a domain name towards an IPv6 address.
