Package: dhcp3-client
Version: 3.0.4-13
Severity: normal

dhcp3-client issues bogus message:
bp0: unknown hardware address type 65535

which is wrong for two reasons: 1) that is defined type ARPHRD_VOID; and
2) the interface in question isn't in dhclient.conf, so it should be
ignored anyway.

$ grep -rn ARPHRD_VOID /usr/include
/usr/include/linux/if_arp.h:89:#define ARPHRD_VOID        0xFFFF
/* Void type, nothing is known */

Notice also that ifconfig deals with it just fine.
