Bug#334980: dhcp3-server: goes into infinite loop and fill syslog if started with this bad configuration file

[Cedric Delfosse]

Package: dhcp3-server
Version: 3.0.1-2
Severity: important

With the attached configuration file, dhcpd goes into infinite loops and log
this into syslog:

Oct 21 11:00:40 replic dhcpd:
Oct 21 11:00:40 replic dhcpd: ^
Oct 21 11:00:40 replic dhcpd: /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf line 14: expecting a 
parameter or declaration

I know that my configuration file is false (a hostname is missing after the
option routers keyword), but dhcpd shouldn't have this behaviour.
