For now, we've managed to ascertain that at least on Precise, temporary IP addresses hang around for the lifetime of the "static" autoconfigured one, and get their lifetime updated by RAs coming in from the router. I think this should be very much covering your use case, so I'll close this bug as Fix Released for Precise.

Would it be possible for you to test a kernel from Precise on Oneiric, or to execute the same steps you were taking in Oneiric using a Precise LiveCD?

You can get Oneiric version of the kernels used on Precise from the http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ (Kernel mainline PPA). For example, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2-rc4-oneiric/ may be a good candidate to test.
