It would have to be a really old one that you are using for it to
potentially matter; the TAP driver was the first thing that I worked on,
and the last significant fix (which was indeed in the DHCP area) was done
in early May.

It's entirely possible that I broke this as I did have to make
modifications throughout to accommodate PocketPC's driver model.
