I have the following in my dhcpd.conf:

> ddns-hostname = pick (option fqdn.hostname, option host-name,
>         binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "-", substring (hardware, 1, 6)));

and this in my dhcpd6.conf:

> ddns-hostname = pick(concat(option fqdn.hostname,"-v6"),
>                      concat(option host-name,"-v6"),

so I end up with hostname.domain.com in v4 and hostname-v6.domain.com in
v6. Yeah, it stinks and things are being done to work around this, but
for now...
