Assign the AAAA to the IPv6 address of the given host... ie:

baremetal.wetworks.org. 90 IN A    192.153.154.127
baremetal.wetworks.org. 90 IN AAAA 2001:470:1f00:4024:250:56ff:feb6:3e25

to test:  "dig baremetal.wetworks.org A"
          "dig baremetal.wetworks.org AAAA"

Obviously, you need IPv6 transport in place to make this useful.
