ikvjwd.com once offered a service using haproxy, you can find their
configuration here:

Another way to tunnel all IPv4 traffic is set up an OpenVPN server on
a dual stack machine and route your client IPv4 traffic over it (that
approach is actually very easy to accomplish, stable and will work
with any service).
