Yes it pings.

Restarting the tinc daemon will reconnect :) You can also do this in
/etc/tinc/<netname>/:

mv hosts x;
tincd -n <netname> -kHUP;
mv x hosts;
tincd -n <netname> -kHUP;

But why do you want to reconnect if a connection is still working?

In that case, you can create a persistent tun/tap interface with
"tunctl" from the User Mode Linux package or with OpenVPN.

When it is ready.

If you use Debian you can use reportbug to file bugs against the tinc
package, otherwise you'll have to do with this mailing list.
