At least eNom does.
There are a few others but it tends to be that you have to raise a support ticket to actually get the records in, most webinterfaces don't support it yet unfortunately.
One note here is that even though you can get glue into com/net/org using this method, there is no IPv6 glue for the root yet, as such even if you manage to get the IPv6 glue in, it won't accomplish much (except sending all IPv6 capable resolvers over IPv6 transport :) as all resolvers will still require IPv4 to reach the root. One can of course create their own root hint zone and force bind, or other dns server, to not fetch the hints from the real root, but that doesn't help for the rest of the planet. (Root alternatives like orsn could fix that up but apparently their main german box that was doing IPv6 is out of the air)
You don't change the hints you just provide zones that override B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET, F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET, H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET, K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET and M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET or just use your own ROOT-SERVERS.NET zone with the AAAAs added in. In the few couple of years I've only seen two outages with the IPv6 root instances. In both cases they were fixed soon after reporting the outage. Mark B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN A 192.228.79.201 B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN AAAA 2001:478:65::53 F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN A 192.5.5.241 F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN AAAA 2001:500::1035 H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN A 128.63.2.53 H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN AAAA 2001:500:1::803f:235 K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN A 193.0.14.129 K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN AAAA 2001:7fd::1 M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN A 202.12.27.33 M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 3600 IN AAAA 2001:dc3::35
Note also that various ccTLD's are able to add glue to your zone on request (notably .fr/.ch/.nl/.se do so already for quite some time)
