Unless I am missing something, packets are not dropped. It looks more
like udhcpc gets bad indigestion in the receive path and exits immediately.
Plus, it doesn't happen all the time; sometimes it receives the discover
response and is able to obtain an IP address.

Overall this is quite puzzling since udhcpc exits immediately when the problem
is seen, no matter which option I give it on the command line; it should not
really do that.
