blacklistd was not working for me and the ACL check you mention was certainly
not described anywhere I saw. After reading the Fine Man Page, I came to the
conclusion that passing a sockaddr with a fd of -1 was expected to work with the
code as is. Hence my change.
As libterminfo is deeply embedded in our system (just as termcap was) I regard
it as just as critical, if not more-so. With a busted libterminfo on a stock
install vi won't work and nor will pkg_add to install an alternative editor.
At least if dhcpcd is busted you can still bring up the network manually.

I don't touch dhcpd unless it stops working or crashes for me.
I don't make random changes to it or feature enhancements.
I consider it a critical enough daemon to need fixing ASAP.
If I was going to make improvements, I would propose them.

You don't discuss any dhcpcd changes either, blatantly ignoring the request in
doc/3RDPARTY. Some of which I have objected to and redone over the years.
Don't hold me accountable for a practice you don't respect.
