How did that work? Did it use verbs to do the communication to get an
address, then use that to run through the dhcp-script?

Do you by any chance have a location for this post/patch?

Yep. We have already started looking into this. It looks as though we
have to write the packet header ourselves as detailed by RFC 4391
(broadcasting over IB is different then ethernet). Also, it appears as
all of the dhcp clients (at least that we tried) seem to have this
problem except for the patched ISC version posted by Moni Levy at:
