Another idea would be to have the dns serve for the instance address of
the IPv6 of the instance and the IPv4 of the gateway. Then the proxy
would connect to the instance through IPv6. We would want some
configuration to force it to *never* use IPv4 -IPv6 is already the
default- but seems a simple method.
