no, in VNET jails the jail does routing itself, including IP address assignment. while i personally prefer to do this statically, i believe it's fairly common to use DHCP (for IPv4) or SLAAC (for IPv6) to handle this automatically, especially in mass-hosting setups. since dhclient is fairly small (150kB) and DHCP is something people typically expect to "just work", i am leaning on the side of putting this into minimal-jail unless anyone has a strong objection.
