dhcpcd is fine. But this is a patch for dhclient. Which is a totally different dhcp client.
When I installed wicd, dhclient was a dependency, if you want to use wicd, you need to use dhclient. If you want to have multiple search domains with dhclient (through wicd), you need to edit your /etc/resolv.conf and append those search domains.
Rather than edit by hand, or run an external script. Why not just patch the dhclient-script?
So yes, something like this SHOULD be unecessairy. But it isn't.
