KAME (*BSDs) does not implement the optimization either.  That's
intentional - we once implemented the optimization, but then we
changed our mind because doing DAD for every (unicast) address is a
SHOULD in RFC 2462 and we did not have any strong reason not to follow
the SHOULD (at least at that moment).
