As I recall, the problem is that the Orinoco card is a pcmcia card and is started pretty late in the init process. You can try to start dhcpd later than pcmcia, possibly even waiting for the eth2 interface to show up in the system. I had a similar problem with a pcmcia only based LEAF box and solved it with a startup script which would check for the number of interfaces present. I don't have neither pcmcia nor dhcp on my firewall anymore, the RCDLINKS approach looks sensible to me.
