Subject: [PATCH] Improved detection if a dhcp client is running, causing ifup-dhcp and
 the network script to report false failures, when the client forks at
 the moment of the check (bnc#562030 and others).

git-svn-id: https://svn.suse.de/svn/sysconfig/branches/opensuse-11.2@2068 bf393798-0adf-0310-9952-bd479070b6c1
