That shouldn't affect the actual test, which I was going to have them
rewrite anyway.  What I'm concerned about it is, if the code
works as intended, does this change actually work?  Does exiting from
this dhclient-script cause dhclient to do what he thinks it will do,
whatever that is?  But like I said, you're the most important customer
for it, IMHO.

I think this is your test.  But never fear, I was going to fix it up
for them ~:^)
