Ok, I'm still testing it, but heres a new patch for review.  Significant changes
include the addition of a CONFIG_IPV6_OPTIMISTIC_DAD option that is dependent on
the inclusion of both IPPV6 and EXPERIMENTAL options, as well as a new method
for redirecting packets from optimistic sources to incomplete neighbors by
instead looking up a default router in ip6_dst_lookup_tail, as I described in my
previous note.

Thoughts and comments appreciated
Thanks & Regards
Neil
