  Log:
  Support code for the OpenBSD dhclient.  This significantly changes the
  way interfaces are configured.  Some key points:
  
    - At startup, all interfaces are configured through /etc/rc.d/netif.
    - ifconfig_<if> variables my now mix real ifconfig commands the with
      DHCP and WPA directives.  For example, this allows media
      configuration prior to running dhclient.
    - /etc/rc.d/dhclient is not run at startup except by netif to start
      dhclient on specific interfaces.
    - /etc/pccard_ether calls "/etc/rc.d/netif start <if>" to do most of
      it's work.
    - /etc/pccard_ether no longer takes additional arguments to pass to
      ifconfig.  Instead, ifconfig_<if> variables are now honored in favor
      of pccard_ifconfig when available.
    - /etc/pccard_ether will only run on interfaces specified in
      removable_interfaces, even if pccard_ifconfig is set.
