Fix handling of rc_force in /etc/rc.d/dhclient

Variable 'rc_force' is accessible only at the time of rc_run_command,
so it can't be examined from the script's main code.

MFC after:	2 weeks
------------------------------------------------------------------------

It simply didn't exist before this change; before it was just a 'return =
1', which is illegal outside of functions, amongst other things.

So I vote to just remove the message (convert the err 1 to a exit 1) and =
MFC back to 9.0=85 please, because this change is present there now.

We can argue about the semantics of rc_quiet later. Tons of people just =
care about the fact that the message is showing up and don't really care =
about the semantics.

Thanks,
