They now have a dual stack EC2 API endpoint. But you have to go out of your way to use as it is on a totally different domain, and also it is limited to few regions. us-east-2 region for example

  api.ec2.us-east-2.aws

Our reason for this is that customers may have IP-based rules in their IAM policies. If we silently turned on IPv6 for existing endpoints, those policies would suddenly break without notice. Hence new names and SDK options for dual-stack.
