What I mean by that is that the delay in address configuration 
caused by RETRANS_TIMER must be removed. 

Optimistically configured addresses still stay Tentative for at 
least RETRANS_TIMER, but their use is not _delayed_ by this.
They can be used while still Tentative.

I hope that clarifies things!
