When I specify the ipv6 directly, at least that works:

address@hidden ~]$ test_sks_keyserver.sh 
'[2a02:c200:0000:0010:0000:0000:0404:0201]'
gpg: requesting key AE127015 from hkp server 
[2a02:c200:0000:0010:0000:0000:0404:0201]
gpg: key AE127015: "Todd A. Lyons (Cannonball) <address@hidden>" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:              unchanged: 1

There is not a visible AAAA record for that ip:

disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      NS munich.parts-unknown.org.
disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      NS reykjavik.parts-unknown.org.
disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      MX      10 mail.parts-unknown.org.
disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      MX      20 reykjavik.parts-unknown.org.
disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      TXT     "v=spf1 a mx ~all"
disunitedstates.com.    86400   IN      A       91.205.174.231

dbenfell.gmail.com. 2013092601 14400 14400 1209600 86400

There is no rDNS for that ip:

address@hidden ~]$ host 2a02:c200:0000:0010:0000:0000:0404:0201
Host 1.0.2.0.4.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.c.2.0.a.2.ip6.arpa 
not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Set up those two things and you'll probably start getting traffic on the
ipv6 interface.  Make sure to add pool.sks-keyservers.net and
*.pool.sks-keyservers.net as ServerAliases (apache speak, varies if
you're using a different rproxy mechanism).
