I have tested this with Jeff tonight, I only have IPv4 access tonight,
but I presume substituting one address for the other will work. For a
Linux machine with iptables, run two commands

sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to
216.87.84.211:5353
sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to
216.87.84.211:5353

I ran this on my linux-based router, and it applied for my whole network.
I'll see what methods I can do for other systems, no promises though.
