dhcpcd (and probably pump as well) save the last assigned IP address, and try
to negotiate that address the next time they are invoked. So if you start
either of them within the lease expiration time you will be assigned the same
address the daemon negotiated last time (but a different IP for the different
daemons in this case)). Try removing /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.cache and maybe -
.info and see what happens.

It seems dhcpcd is not restarting. This is because you didn't kill it when
restarting your network services. Edit your /etc/rc.d/init.d/network so that
it kills dhcpcd when stopping(/restarting), or just kill dhcpcd by hand before
restarting your network.
I don't know how pump should behave in this case. For some reason I could not
get pump to work with my cable modem right away, so I switched to dhcpcd,
edited the network script to use dhcpcd instead of pump and this works nicely
for me.
Bye,
Leonard.
