FreeBSD 6-STABLE has imported dhclient from OpenBSD:

OpenBSD dhclient as of OpenBSD 3.7 has been imported. It replaces the 
ISC DHCP client used in prior versions of FreeBSD.
(http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/6-STABLE/relnotes/i386/article.html)

making /etc/dhclient.conf no longer accept this syntax:
send fqdn.fqdn "some.host.name.";
send fqdn.server-update on;

Ironically, OpenBSD 3.8-current has reverted back to accepting this DDNS 
related syntax a month or so ago.

Is there a chance we get a fresher merge from OpenBSD?
