One really ugly, nasty kludge to try, is to add something like
"sleep 10" to /etc/dhclient-enter-hooks, with the idea being that the
watchdog timeout will occur during the sleep.
[ I'm using a Xircom card with the watchdog timeouts, but I'm using a
static IP address. It doesn't apply to you, but I've got to do a
"ifconfig xe0 up ; sleep 10" before configuring my network settings. ]
