How about man dhclient-script? If neither of those show the option, how about running /sbin/dhclient-2.2.x -h? If none of them show what it does, you should submit a bug report.
If you want my guess as to what -q does, it puts the program in quiet mode, suppressing most output, to make the program more suitable for running in a script (such as a boot script). > Second, where or how to check if the lease of DHCP expires?
