I ran the exact same problem about a week ago. In retro-spect I should
have put in a PR (sorry about that). I'll try and put one together this
weekend if there isn't already one. (Did you submit one Louie?)

While this would be a short-term fix. This problem should be treated as a
bug. If /etc/resolv.conf isn't writable, dhclient should print an error
and exit (previous behavior). Not get stuck in an infinite loop,
requesting a new lease every ~5 seconds.
