I find this odd too, and think it should probably be removed, but it
hasn't caused by enough trouble to overcome my reluctance to change
things I don't understand.

A more serious issue that I haven't figured out is that when the dhcp
server goes away for denies leases for a while (VZ FiOS, every 6 months
or so) and then comes back, I end up with a bad default route and am
thus off the net.
