dhclient changes: ifconfig_sisXX="... DHCP" almost works right with
natd

With the new dhclient arrangement, it looks like we almost support the
following syntax:
ifconfig_sis0="ether 00:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX DHCP"
In that the boot sequence appears to automatically try DHCP after doing
the ifconfig line. This is great. However, it looks like the detection
of interfaces to use "-dynamic" with in /etc/rc.d/natd no longer works.
Specifically, when I use the above syntax in rc.conf and run sh
/etc/rc.d/natd start, I get the following:
natdnatd: sis0: cannot get interface address
If I manually launch natd with -dynamic, then it does work properly again.
If I remove the extended ether segment of the ifconfig line, it works
again also. So it looks like 'list_net_interfaced dhcp' isn't matching the
sis0 interface in the above example?
