There was no answer to my question on RFC 2893-style automatic tunneling,
so I take this as a possible indication that no one is still using this mechanism.

Should we move to deprecate, then? If so, what form should the deprecation take?

Is RFC 2893-style automatic tunneling (i.e., with IPv4-compatible IPv6 addresses)
used in any active deployments? It seems to me that the functionality is obsoleted
by newer automatic tunneling mechanisms (e.g., 6to4, isatap, etc.) but I'd like to
hear from those with more current operational experience.
