patch for dhclient-script

For what its worth, I noticed that with the rawhide update on Sat, June
12, the dchp client no longer routed.  I determined that before
dhclient-script finished, there were two entries for default:

default         *               0.0.0.0         U         0 0          0 eth1
default         192.168.0.1     0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0 eth1

But then when dhclient-script would finish, the default gw for 192.168.0.1
world be deleted leaving only the * default gateway.  The following patch
resolves this, but I do not know it it messes other things.
