 From http://www.isi.edu/~sekiya/IPv6/DNS.html#Reversezone:

"Each organization operating a top level aggregator receives a sub-domain 
corresponding to their TLA. In turn, they will delegate further subdomains 
to transit providers. The process goes recursively until a prefix is 
assigned to an end site or network."

So, talk to your upstream.... my tunnel provider (sprint) delegated my 
reverse of 3ffe:2900:e00a::/48 by default....  The corresponding zone in my 
NS would be a.0.0.e.0.0.9.2.e.f.f.3.ip6.int.

You can also just 'dig' the ip6.int domain yourself and follow the 
delegation tree, if all else fails and you can't get a straight answer from 
anyone.

Have fun.
