Bind 9.2.3 and ipv6

Having a few problems, I've got an ipv6 /48 prefix, and I set it up as per
the instructions at: http://www.freenet6.net/reverse-dns.shtml

My problem is thus that it returns the authority section fine, but no PTR. I
have the same problem on two servers, with identical setups (except of
course for the difference in ips/domains etc)

Any Help would be appreciated.

Below is /etc/named.conf:

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        /*
         * If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
         * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
         * directive below.  Previous versions of BIND always asked
         * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged
         * port by default.
         */
        // query-source address * port 53;

        listen-on {
                213.105.122.94;
                };
        listen-on {
                192.168.1.1;
                };
        listen-on {
                127.0.0.1;
                };
        listen-on-v6 {
                ::1;
                };
};

//
// a caching only nameserver config
//
zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "caching-example/named.ca";
};

zone "localhost" IN {
        type master;
        file "caching-example/localhost.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "caching-example/named.local";
        allow-update { none; };
};

zone "5.e.7.0.0.c.b.0.e.f.f.3.ip6.int" {
        type master;
        file "reverse-3ffe-0bc0-07e5.ip6.int";
};
