FWIW The Solaris implementation does supress DAD on addresses configured using the stateless mechanism except the link local address. It does perform DAD on all manually configured addresses. My person opinion is that we should fix that implementation and other implementations that have this behavior. Forcing implementations to have more than one link-local address due to RFC 3041 (and potentially lots of them - one for every valid RFC 3041 address) since quite odd both conceptually and messy to deal with from an implementation perspective (need to track which is the "real" link-local address.)
