I know, this is very old question, but still actual.
I've patched dhclient to match dhcpd's logging behavior. Use
'dhclient -dq dc0 &' to run it in complete silent mode (no
stderr/syslog logging). Wrap in '!(' ... ')' for calling from
interface script. Don't forget to look at updated manpage: old
'-d' flag moved into '-f'.
