If you have a global IPv4 address, you could use e.g. 2002:[hex 
representation of the address]::/48 as with 6to4.

It is NOT TO BE USED for this kind of testing, but using 3ffe:ffff::/32
temporarily and internally without any connections would not have
undesired drawbacks.

USAGI has one, for example.
