Is this specific to a particular network driver? I am suggesting some drivers may have shitty / sloppy coming-up behaviour. Or, that dhcpleased is going to need to be more forgiving. Or maybe as a result of the timeout policy it practices, it works different than dhclient did, and maybe that is not surprising?
