Sorry if this is a dumb question, but presumably the interface is an  
ethernet card, right? What's it connected to?

FISO sounds all very new & "experimental" and with the potential for  
not every glitch to be discovered yet. Can you beg borrow or steal a  
router from somewhere, connect your computer to that, instead, and see  
if dhcpcd 5.1 receives a lease from it? (Or alternatively, set up  
dhcpd on another machine, connect them together with a cable and see  
if that machine responds to the requests of dhcpcd 5.1)
