Changes from dhcpcd-5.0.3 include
* ServerID requirement in DHCP messages can be toggled in dhcpcd.conf
* If MTU is requested, don't apply if less than 576
* Enforce a minimum lease time of 20 seconds
Changes from 5.0.1 include
* -n option now starts dhcpcd if not already started
* 29-lookup-hostname hook installed by default, but skipped in dhcpcd.conf
* Fix warning about missing dirs if we don't have any existing state
* Fix compile on some Linux distros re linux/wireless.h
Major changes from dhcpcd-4 include
* Single daemon can now run DHCP on multiple interfaces at the same time
* Configuration profiles per interface, ssid, arping and fallback
* Listens to 3rd party programs changing routing information
* Supports DHCP INFORM over PPP
* Can configure static options for destination address
* Control socket so 3rd party program can control or listen directly
to dhcpcd events
* Is also a BOOTP client
Add logic to evaluate license conditions. As frontend for pkgsrc,
pkg_admin gets two new commands (check-license and
check-single-license), which can be used to evaluate a given condition.
pkg_add will be changed to honour licenses at a later point.
Make pkg_delete -d the default behavior, remove the option.
Remove pkg_create -R support (reorder @dirrm entries).
Introduce new plist command @pkgdir, which makes pkg_add add
this directory if it doesn't exist already and pkg_delete remove it
only if no other package has a @pkgdir entry for it. Otherwise
directories are pruned when the last file or directory in them is
removed. @dirrm is now a pure hint, if the directory doesn't exist, it
will be silently skipped.

Fixed since dhcpcd-4.0.12 include
* Every DHCP message now requires a ServerID as some rogue DHCP servers
NAK without one.
* Extra UDP validation is now done for testing dhcpcd over a loopback
address space available to processes. this limit exists in most other
modern unix variants, and like most of them, our defaults are unlimited.
remove the old mmap / rlimit.datasize hack.
- adds the VMCMD_STACK flag to all the stack-creation vmcmd callers.
it is currently unused, but was added a few years ago.
- add a pair of new process size values to kinfo_proc2{}. one is the
total size of the process memory map, and the other is the total size
adjusted for unused stack space (since most processes have a lot of
this...)
- patch sh, and csh to notice RLIMIT_AS. (in some cases, the alias
RLIMIT_VMEM was already present and used if availble.)
- patch ps, top and systat to notice the new k_vm_vsize member of
kinfo_proc2{}.
- update irix, svr4, svr4_32, linux and osf1 emulations to support
this information. (freebsd could be done, but that it's best left
as part of the full-update of compat/freebsd.)
this addresses PR 7897. it also gives correct memory usage values,
which have never been entirely correct (since mmap), and have been
very incorrect since jemalloc() was enabled.
tested on i386 and sparc64, build tested on several other platforms.
thanks to many folks for feedback and testing but most espcially
chuq and yamt for critical suggestions that lead to this patch not
having a special ugliness i wasn't happy with anyway :-)
