Here we have a piece of rc.local:

#!/bin/sh
#
# rc.local
#
# This script will setup the environment for a diskless workstation, as
# part of the Linux Terminal Server Project (http://www.LTSP.org)
...
#
# Un-mount the initrd, to free up some space
#
umount /oldroot >/dev/null 2>&1

-----// snip //--------------

This doesn't work. /oldroot will not be umounted, cause dhclient is still
running with the need to have oldroot, which was / at it's start-time.

So to really free up space, which is a good thing for old boxes with a low
amount of memory, dhclient has to be terminated beforehand.

If one needs to restart dhclient, some steps have to be taken, cause
that binary is linked against uClibc.

If there is interest, I'd mail the steps to be taken.
