Last I tried, the OpenBSD dhclient we imported a year ago blithely ignored
the dhclient-exit-hooks scripts.  This is annoying because in my
application, I want to set specific routes not default routes on a
successful DHCP (ie: a tunneling CPE device).  I had to revert to the
ISC-DHCP to restore working dhclient script functionality.  Note also that
the source and man documentation on this subject appear to document the
correct behaviour (not the behaviour of the system).
