Ok - thanks. I'm fortunate at the moment that I've stopped using the jail
I had on that particular machine. Even though this is a somewhat unusual
situation (ie dhcp + jail alias) I don't suppose there's any move to in
the mean time incorporate a 'DHCLIENT=' make option for ISC/OpenBSD
versions? ;)
