>Description:
	The dhclient(8) manual page has two mistakes:
	1) The behaviour of dhclient when sent SIGHUP is documented:

       If  dhclient  receives the signal SIGHUP, it re-initialize
       the leases.  On receipt of the signal SIGTERM, it  release
       the leases, then exits.

	In fact the application will die if sent SIGHUP.

	2) The last paragraph of the COMMAND LINE details indicates
	   that there is an tool dhcpccp(8) which can be used to control
	   the behaviour of dhclient.  This tool doesn't appear to exist.

	Both of these problems appear to be present in dhcp-3.0b2pl5 from
	www.isc.org.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Examine manual page.
>Fix:
	1) remove the incorrect details about SIGHUP.
	2) remove the incorrect details about dhcpccp(8).
