I do not believe this is an error.
Per dhclient.conf.5, the script directive specifies a DHCP client 
configuration script, and in the example given in the EXAMPLES section, it 
is entirely reasonable to have a custom configuration script for that 
interface.  In that case, the default /sbin/dhclient-script would not be 
appropriate, and a custom version of it needed. Putting such a custom 
configuration script in /etc is in keeping with the traditional location 
for system configuration files.
