The diskless SPARC system works properly now.
Will have to check other diskless clients (amd64, i386, evbmips).
All diskless client "dhcpcd.conf" files have only the following changes
from default:
comment out "hostname" directive
un-comment "ntp_servers" option
add "env force_hostname=YES"
If the hostname is "localhost" then dhcpcd won't send it.
If the hostname is "localhost" then dhcpcd will set the hostname given
via DHCP.
So the only config change you should need to make by default is
uncommenting ntp_servers.
