>Release:        FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386
>Organization:
Ubergeeks Consulting
>Environment:

	4-stable from 06/29/00.

>Description:

	If you set either of the dhcp_program or dhcp_flags variables to
	non-default values in /etc/rc.conf _AND_ use DHCP with a PCCARD device,
	your settings will not be used.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Set either dhcp_program or dhcp_flags in /etc/rc.conf, e.g. 
	dhcp_flags="-D", and then insert your pccard network device.  
	The changes will not be used.  In contrast the settings are 
	used in rc.network.

>Fix:

	Apply the included patch.  Note it also adds some unnecessary {}'s for
	the sake of stylistic consistency lower down in the script.
