  Log:
  Enable dhclient to poll the interface state and send only
  requests if the interface has an active link. This is a
  great benefit if you often change networks with your laptop
  and you do not like to kill/restart dhclient all the time.
  Changes are automatically detected and the link is refreshed.
  
  The change allows us to start dhclient in background mode
  Enable dhclient to poll the interface state and send only
  requests if the interface has an active link. This is a
  great benefit if you often change networks with your laptop
  and you do not like to kill/restart dhclient all the time.
  Changes are automatically detected and the link is refreshed.
  
  The change allows us to start dhclient in background mode
  while the network cable is not plugged in.
  
  To control the polling interval, the option -i has been
  introduced. It takes seconds as parameter, the minimum is
  one second, the default is five seconds.
  
  Polling is done in seconds, not microseconds, because dhclient
  does internally work with timeouts in seconds.
  
  This change will be part of the next major ISC-dhcpd release.
  
  Tested by:      bms, imp, and many many others.
