I ran into this problem when scripting the udhcp package last week.
I kept having the exact problem. What fixed it for me (which may be
fixed in Dachstein) is editing the conf file to bring up the interface
(ip addr add ......) _BEFORE_ bringing up the default route (ip route 
add ......). The route would not come up right w/o the interface having
a valid ip/network, which is setup _just_ afterwards in the script.

It amounted to moving about 4 lines of code about 4 lines.
You might try the new dhclient.lrp from Dachstein or try my new
udhcp.lrp package that replaces both dhclient.lrp and dhcpd.lrp.

The testing udhcp.lrp package for Dachstein/Eigerstein is at:

If you try it, let me know how it works!

If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question!
