In my case, n-m was denied that pleasure, and had the great good sense to just STHU. I could see it bouncing around in the htop output as it struggled, but no logs were spammed and my network worked 100%. ISTR dhcpd wasn't even installed. This was then a trio of ubu 6-04 lts installs 10 years ago. Now there are 5 wheezy installs here, soon to be 6 I think. I am expecting a raspi-3 Saturday. This was back in the day when removing it took half the system with it. Now all the dependencies are gone, and it is removeable, so I thank $DIETY at every install around the coyote.den. And my local network Just Works. Any of them has full, unrestricted access to ALL them innertubes.
