In Section 4.1:

"
   EAP messages are carried in PANA-Auth-Request messages.
   PANA-Auth-Answer messages are simply used to acknowledge receipt of
   the requests.  As an optimization, a PANA-Auth-Answer message MAY
   include the EAP message.  This optimization SHOULD NOT be used when
   it takes time to generate the EAP message (due to, e.g., intervention
   of human input), in which case returning an PANA-Auth-Answer message
   without piggybacking an EAP message can avoid unnecessary
   retransmission of the PANA-Auth-Request message.
"

I think this piggybacking is allowed for PAN generated by PaC only.
Piggybacking EAP for PAN generated by PAA should not allowed,
otherwise the protocol operation can be complex.
