So if anyone has any really good reasons to keep dhclient around, now is the
time to discuss them. I've added and supported every request in dhcpcd that
anyone here as ever asked.

Could dhcpcd behave as dhclient when argv{0] is dhclient? That way
we could hardlink dhclient to dhcpcd and remove it while no user
would get surprised by the change.

That wouldn't be great. At lot of installations would use the -cf option to specify a configuration file of which dhcpcd's is totally different.
