You are correct. When I add 'static-routes' to the 'request' stanza in
my dhclient.conf, I receive the route.

Correct. I found out that you can write custom scripts which dhclient
executes at certain points if operation. I created the file
/etc/dhclient-exit-hooks which contains this:
if [ $reason == "BOUND" ] || [ $reason == "REBOOT" ]
then
host=$(echo $new_static_routes | awk '{ print $1 }')
gw=$(echo $new_static_routes | awk '{ print $2 }')
route add -host $host gw $gw
fi
dhclient executes this after getting a lease and apparently it works in
my case. Of course it's not well tested and I am a poor shell
programmer.
Thanks a lot, Simon. Not only for developing and maintaining dnsmasq,
but also for your prompt support.
