Which host implementations do this? Certainly not the Linux one - it just
lets the route expire, as per RFC 4862.

No standard specifies that hosts should send RS after waking up from sleep.
Which implementations do this?

the node sends traffic to the default router and uses old RA information.


No, it doesn't. That's a clear violation of RFC 4862.

routers.
