Your patch has been applied to the master branch.

I do not really have a test rig to test this, currently.  I think it would
need a long-running client instance that connects to a server, receives
a set of options, disconnects (server kicking it out?), reconnects, and
receives *different* options.  Or possibly "not receives options that
were set before", so verify "fall back to default/config file settings".

OTOH staring at the code looks reasonable - we only restore if something
was saved before (o->pre_pull initialized) and if we succeed connecting, 
it's the same amount of energy spent.

I have run this through the enhanced client side tests (including the
"must fail!") tests, but since these all only do single-shot connections,
this is not really excercising the code change.


I do wonder if connection *failures* would cause an increased memory
consumption now... is "&c->c2.gc" cleared eventually?  (Because we 
allocate new copies of route-lists in that GC)... *looking*... ah, yes,
c2.gc lives only for "one instance" (init_instance() to close_instance()),
and since that one talks about "advance connection entry", it looks
like "this dance is done per connection attempt"...
