Record #298 has a ICMP Rediret packet (and more follows in #303 and #306).
Why does 10.100.0.1 (your local gw?) send this redirect message to your NetBSD client?

Any reason for using two seperate IP subnets in your setup (172.16.0.0/24 
and 10.100.0.0/24)?
Why not let RARP assign the same IP adress as the DHCP does later on?
