Follow-up Comment #1:

That's no bug, because:

- TCPIP_NETIFAPI() (as called by netifapi_netif_add()) waits for
tcpip_callback() to return, so when netif_add() is called, the address is
still valid.

- both netif_add() and netif_set_addr() copy the address into ip_addr_t
members of struct netif, so the original pointers are not referenced after the
function returns.
