It is. But just remember to set the evil bit and you're ok...

From draft-ietf-ipv6-unique-local-addr-09.txt:

4.4 DNS Issues

   At the present time AAAA and PTR records for locally assigned local
   IPv6 addresses are not recommended to be installed in the global  
DNS.
   The operational issues relating to this are beyond the scope of this
   document.

Since obviously address that don't appear in the DNS aren't usable in  
practice, this passage effectively requires two-faced DNS.
