Since the comments in our code imply that dnsmasq should be waiting for
DAD to complete prior to daemonizing, before pushing a fix like this I'd
like to find out from the dnsmasq folks if we are erroneously relying on
nonexistent dnsmasq behavior, or if maybe there is a bug in some version
of dnsmasq.

Simon (or other dnsmasq people) - when dnsmasq is run with "enable-ra",
does it make sure it completes DAD prior to daemonizing? Or does libvirt
need to do this extra polling to assure that DAD has completed? (or
maybe there's some other config parameter we need to add?)
