According to the carp manpage it does:

<QUOTE>
     First the carp interfaces on Host A are configured.  The advskew of 100
     on the second virtual host means that it's advertisements will be sent
     out slightly less frequently.

           # ifconfig carp0 create
           # ifconfig carp0 vhid 1 pass mekmitasdigoat 192.168.1.10
           # ifconfig carp1 create
           # ifconfig carp1 vhid 2 advskew 100 pass mekmitasdigoat
           # 192.168.1.10

     The configuration for host B is identical, except the skew is on virtual
     host 1 rather than virtual host 2.

           # ifconfig carp0 create
           # ifconfig carp0 vhid 1 advskew 100 pass mekmitasdigoat
           # 192.168.1.10
           # ifconfig carp1 create
           # ifconfig carp1 vhid 2 pass mekmitasdigoat 192.168.1.10

However, I tested the setup also with only carp0 active. Didn't change a
thing.
