--- Comment #2 from Kate <kate at elide.org> ---
In both cases, I can confirm the presence of dummynet's pipe at layer2 is
requisite for producing the symptoms:

#
# sysctl net.link.ether.ipfw=1
net.link.ether.ipfw: 0 -> 1
# sysctl net.link.bridge.ipfw=1
net.link.bridge.ipfw: 0 -> 1
#
# dhclient arge0
DHCPDISCOVER on arge0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3
DHCPOFFER from 10.0.0.1
DHCPREQUEST on arge0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
DHCPACK from 10.0.0.1
bound to 10.0.0.12 -- renewal in 300 seconds.
