Yes.

$ host v13.lscache8.l.google.com
v13.lscache8.l.google.com has address 150.101.98.210
v13.lscache8.l.google.com has IPv6 address 2001:4860:4001:402::1d

Yes. My packet sniffer confirms it.

The www.youtube.com frontend isn't IPv6-enabled yet, but the
video-serving backends are. (Which, AFAIK, run lighttpd. Offtopic, I
