I think it's more that, for example, udhcpc, _runs_ scripts in order
to bring up/down the network interface.  The scripts do things like
edit /etc/resolv.conf and call ifconfig/route.
With the dhcpcd from Buildroot I found this.

If I remove the "default.script" file dhcp seems to work anyhow. Maybe it only can do standard features (getting IP-address, Network mask and gateway) but not extended features (like transferring the local name to the DHCP server to have it pass it to the DNS server.

I found that "default.script" starts with "#!/bin/msh". I don't have such a file (in fact no "msh" shell at all at this time). In fact I tried the "-I" parameter to transfer a name to the DHCP server to have it pass it to the DNS server. This does not work. Maybe I'm wrong assuming "-I" to be used for that feature, maybe the problem really is that I don't have /bin/msh.
