Apply this patch to /lib/udev/ifupdown-hotplug-original. It changes line 78 from
        
        exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE

to

      if [ -z "${INTERFACE##eth[0-9]*}" ]; then
          if [ $(cat /sys/class/net/$INTERFACE/carrier) -eq 1 ]; then
                  exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE
          fi
      else
          exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE
      fi


Which hopefully brings up eth[0-9]* if the cable is plugged in. Most likely it would be a speed 
improvement if the lines "exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE" are changed to "exec 
ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE &", but this works for me. It won't work if your eth is not 
called eth[0-9]* :-)

Just saw a typo in my mail: the file is "/lib/udev/ifupdown-hotplug" (not 
"/lib/udev/ifupdown-hotplug-original").
      Now it launches dhclient on eth0 right away, which incurs some
delay before it goes to background. Shorther than before, but still a delay.

I think you tried the version without "&" at the end of "exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE". Could you please edit 
the two lines (80 and 83) in "/lib/udev/ifupdown-hotplug" so that they say "exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE &" - 
i.e. add the "&" at the end and try again?
    I fact, my situation wasn't the same as the one you reported in the first place. The message on the console was the following:

    Configure network interfaces...ifup: waiting for lock on /run/network/ifstate.eth0     This has now disapeared and I am dealing with waiting on DHCP for an interface without any cable plugged in.

    I wondered if there was an interplay with ifplugd there.

    I tried disabling all interfaces in ifplugd and the result was the same.

    Then I introduced some debug prints in ifupdown-hotplug to debug the logic:
...
    printf 'ifupdown-hotplug invoked for interface %s\n' "$INTERFACE" >/run/$INTERFACE.log;

    if [ -z "${INTERFACE##eth[0-9]*}" ]; then
        if [ $(cat /sys/class/net/$INTERFACE/carrier) -eq 1 ]; then
            printf 'Carrier detected; setting up.\n' >>/run/$INTERFACE.log
            exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE &
        else
            printf 'No carrier; do not set up.\n' >>/run/$INTERFACE.log;
        fi
    else
        printf 'Not an ethernet interface; setting up.\n' >>/run/$INTERFACE.log;
        exec ifup --allow=hotplug $INTERFACE &
    fi
  ...

The result is as expected:
$ cat /run/eth0.log
ifupdown-hotplug invoked for interface eth0
No carrier; do not set up.

    DHCPDISCOVER is probably launched by the caller of ifupdown-hotplug. I tried to exit with return-code 1 in case the carrier isn't detected, but this has no effect.
