--- Comment #11 from peos42 <peo_s@incedo.org> ---
(In reply to Conrad Meyer from comment #8)

RFC 4861 say:=20
--snip--
   If the source address of the packet prompting the solicitation is the=20
   same as one of the addresses assigned to the outgoing interface, that=20
   address SHOULD be placed in the IP Source Address of the outgoing=20
   solicitation.  Otherwise, any one of the addresses assigned to the=20
   interface should be used.=20=20=20
--snip--

So it IS permissible for another address to appear here. RFC 5942 that upda=
tes
RFC 4861 seems to not change this.

This is probably why it works on Linux, windows, DragonflyBSD etc. I guess =
they
have seen this as the statement is quite clear.=20
