The main production deployments now are in the research networks, which have
to be commercial quality, but may not offer all the types of services that
commercial ISPs do.

But v6 is running dual stack in Abilene, GEANT, many European NRENs and
the transatlantic link(s) dual-stack without v6 breaking v4.

But there are many gaps.  Projects such as 6NET are trying to document and
where possible work on these (www.6net.org/publications).
