This sounds more like pump failing to negotiate dhcp properly than
like a failure in the driver. Let's check that possibility first
before assuming a driver bug.
Install dhcpcd, chmod a-x /sbin/pump, and see if it works better
(if pump is not there or not executable, the scripts fall back to
dhcpcd). If so, please file a bug report against pump in buzilla
