dhcp security update

A rogue dhcp server could instruct clients to use a host
name that contains shell meta characters. Since many
scripts in the system do not expect unusal characters in
the system's host name the dhcp client needs to sanitize
the host name offered by the server (CVE-2011-0996). This
update also fixes packet handling with xen partial UDP
checksums.
