If a zone has an A6 RR type in it such as:

foo.bar. 21600 IN    A6      0 2001:db8:6880:62:218:8bff:fedd:db8d

ldns-read-zone will fail with

Syntax error, could not parse the RR's rdata at 897

Indeed A6 zone types are historic - https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6563.html but noting this in case this is not intended behaviour.
