Yes, but the point of all my other comments is that dhclient *should* be
writing /etc/resolv.conf, and it *should* be doing it properly.  If it's
not, you control it's behavior with dhclient.conf options until it does.

Once everything's working properly, you no longer worry about when dhclient
overwrites /etc/resolv.conf, because it's no longer updating it with bogus
information.
