I have a /slaacd.core , but the backtrace seems really useless...

I quickly tried to reproduce by manually unplug/replug power, but I can't
achieve to get the same result.

Currently, I am seeing it when I am switching installation power source using a
transfer switch[1] from/to engine-generator[2].

As I am feeling unconfortable with such vocabulary, I linked some terms I used
to wikipedia:

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_switch
[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine-generator

For now, I recompiled slaacd with debug symbols, and will keep it running like
that in order to catch it the next time. But such switchs aren't very
frequent...

Thanks.
