No it is not. Immediately prior to 9.1, ifplugd was working fine, but 
the ifup script would not set the DNS servers supplied by the dhcp 
server in /etc/resolv.conf if the dhcp server didn't supply a domain name 
(you still got an IP, and kept it - totally different behaviour). Similar 
behaviour to what you are seeing *might* have been present during the 
initial integration of ifplug, but that was a bit more than "immediately 
prior to".

AFAIK, pcnet_cs does not support ifplugd, and since you haven't posted 
your ifcfg-eth0 (no, I did not want to know if it was static or dhcp), 
figure out yourself how to turn off ifplugd.
