I have the same problem, I'm running 2.6.15-r1. I was thinking it was
hardware related, as I've been unable to find any similar cases in
forum/list/web searches. Maybe I'm not searching for the 'right'
terms, but I've been operating Gentoo for about a month now and this
problem has persisted.

*  net-misc/dhcpcd
      Latest version available: 2.0.2
      Latest version installed: 2.0.2

I've never heard of it, though I will definitely check it out.

Thanks adj, for asking the question that I hadn't gotten around to
asking yet, and thanks Bob for the suggestions.
