Hello,

I noticed that -10 also changed the format of the link-local stateless
compression to match the stateful global prefix compression.

Is there a case where you'd want to use the fe80::ff:fe00:XXXX form, where
the XXXX is not the 802.15.4 short address? 

At any rate that change is fine, as it somewhat simplifies the code since
all addressing cases are then the same for the IID.

Regards,

 -Colin

By request of the chairs, I have made Dario's suggested change before
submission to IESG.

   This mapping from a short IEEE 802.15.4 address to 64-bit IIDs is
   also used to reconstruct any part of an IID not covered by context
   information when only 16 bits are carried in-line (SAC/DAC=10).
