Bug description:
given 3 nics eth0, eth1, eth2
dhclient -1 -v -pf /run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf
/var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases eth0
while that in its early phases, if eth1 is renamed a race condition
can cause dhclient to exit failure.
This can happen in real life when udev and persistent rules are used.
Ie, in a system where eth0 is configured for 'auto' and dhcp and
persistent rules cause renaming of devices during boot.
I have set up recreate of that more complex system
lp:~smoser/+junk/lp1444428 , but this recreate is simpler to catch.
example, while running attached 'nic-go-crazy' on other nics, I try
ifup eth1
$ sudo ifup eth1
sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu
