Are you sure this bites with dhcpd.conf, and not just dhclient.conf? I was trying to find a recent bug report on this to get more info, and while I found a few [1-5], they all reference dhclient.conf. They are also a bit old, so perhaps you know of something more recent. Currently, we install our own dhclient.conf, so this shouldn't bite us unless there is a server component as well. We may want to change that at some point, which has its own hairy issues with respect to merging the option lists...
