The way to solve this problem was to delete the references to "route add xxx 127.0.0.1". The author is Luoqi Chen and the Message-ID is <199911192156.QAA02988@lor.watermarkgroup.com>. Is there any chance of this making 3.4? I looked at the latest versions of sys/contrib/isc-dhcp/client/scripts/freebsd and the route statements are still there. I recommended commenting out the references to 127.1 to the author of the email with subject "Gnome in -STABLE", and it seemed to have helped. Oddly enough, this doesn't seem to affect my home machine (a not so -current box as of November) at all.
