Without the kernel BOOTP/DHCP, this (doing the DHCP from userspace, from
/etc/rc.d/dhclient) is somewhat late for rc.initdiskless to pick them up,
no?
I mean how would you use that to have the same support for classes in
rc.initdiskless?

Does that make any changes here? rc.initdiskless is called very early in
the boot process and kern.bootp_cookie won't exist (there wouldn't be a
hostname either I think, which I also rely on with the in-kernel DHCP).
