I can't actually say.  However, if it's the dhcpcd that comes with net-misc/dhcp
then that client has a persistence problem and the standalone client - net-misc/dhcpcd
is a better choice.

Or perhaps - net-misc/pump, might be a better choice?

Yes, I didn't answer your question as I don't have a working knowledge of the kernel
and the client other than the persistence issue seen on another Linux on an ia64 platform.
