@stgraber, whilst I am not happy with the latest debdiff.. I do think this issue requires closer consideration. This is the only way that has been determined to resolve multiple IP leases per boot (can consume up to 3 different ones, with some configurations). This means that pools are quickly exhausted, which is a real issue in larger deployments. Therefore, it would seem to be the best way to solve this bug.

Whilst this does introduce a new configuration option, it has a seemingly low impact - as it doesn't change defaults, nor require configuration changes to people upgrading - is a well documented change in the manpage. And importantly, solves a larger bug that has been an issue for some time.
