this is not supposed to be broken, or at least, i think we want to
continue supporting this even if it requires configuration changes.

if i understand your use-case correctly, you are relying on devd to
start dhclient on an interface when the link comes up, when this
interface is also a member of a bridge, is that correct?

if so, are you able to modify your devd event script to run dhclient on
the bridge instead?
