replacement dual-dhclient

when using net/dual-dhclient and doing a service netif restart the DHPv6
address is lost.  This is because the dhclient6 is not killed during the st=
op
process since the base dhclient is unaware of the /var/run/dhclient6.pid fi=
le
to terminate the second dhclient.

As a quick workaround replace the installed /usr/local/sbin/dual-dhclient w=
ith
the attached script.  The script just adds these two lines just befor start=
ing
the dhclients

    pid6=3D/var/run/dhclient6.pid
    [ -n "${pid6}" ] && kill $(cat "${pid6}")
