Fixed, thanks for the patch. I noticed that behaviour on my machine, too.

It turns out (that on my system at least) that SLAAC addresses take a long time to be assigned. This is because the SLAAC addresses only get assigned on receipt of a RA. The lwip stack tries to send RS messages to solicit the RA, but none of them are actually transmitted due to network bringup timings.

This patch only decrements the RS retransmission count if the RS is actually sent.
