Routing IPv6 over IPv4 ?

Hi,
I have a multihomed network running IPv4 (with my own PA allocation) and I now also have IPv6 PA space (a /32).
Both of my upstream transit providers only support IPv4.
One of the ISPs (Tiscali) used by one my upstream transit provider supports IPv4/IPv6 but how I understand it, my upstream transit provider needs to IPv6-enable their network before I can start advertising my IPv6 prefix to the rest of the IPv6-speaking world.
Is there any way at all to advertise an IPv6 prefix when using purely IPv4-only upstreams ?
... or am I stuck using 6-in-4 tunnels for the foreseeable future ?
Thanks in advance!

Routing IPv6 over IPv4 ?
You will want to contact IPv6 Transit Providers and ask them about it.
You can always setup an IPv6 in IPv4 to one of them, to a part of their network that does support IPv6. You might also consider using a different transit provider for IPv6 for the time being.
As for 'advertising IPv6 over IPv4', no that really isn't possible.

Jeroen,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Daniel @ Kewlio.net via the ipv6-ops mailing list has sorted me out with exactly what I need.
Regards,
Terry
