  I know of no DHCPv6 code for debian, nor any clients.

  They exist, but I haven't seen them. I'd run them. I see no way to do
DDNS without state. I also see lots of reasons why I want state in my
address configuration, something which the v6-purists never have
comprehended. 
  (It's because they mostly build routers and never think about
applications) 

  I know of no feasible way to do DDNS for stateless-autoconfiguration
hosts. 

  This is a problem I'd like to solve, so that I can do wavesec.org on
ipv6.
