Actually, I had a somewhat similar problem and fixed it by keeping the
dpcpcd client in the foreground while it went out and fetched an ip
address. I don't remember exactly how I did it but it involved fiddling
with the /etc/init.d/dhcpcd script. I don't have the hack anymore as I
now use ADSL rather than a cable modem. Sorry.
