This will require a bit more work than anticipated.
The patch posted above will only do half of the job.
netcfg will call udhcp with the "-O search" option added which will update
/etc/resolv.conf with the correct search domain values assuming that the
patch for /etc/udhcpc/default.script is also
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

The /etc/udhcpc/default.script that runs at the end of an udhcpc call does
the following to populate the search domain in /etc/resolv.conf:
