Gavin, I dont' know. I can't find an original bug that explains that code in the upstart job. Its attributed to julian.

It seems like we were probably responding to this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=866714
The patch for a fix is at
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/dhcp.git/commit/?id=58a3b6ca5db9af95ebfa1184fd1089da3c4a825b
The patch mentions they filed upstream bug 25806 (isc-dhcp has no public bug tracker that I can find).

Reading that bug, and thinking about this more, it seems like the 'old_dhcpd' route was actually correct
I recall that we were seeing app armor fallout.

This does make me feel like we're going to possibly be seeing this again as dhcpd really should handle it inside itself.

So, we *should* fix isc-dhcpd, but thats not going to make life any easier.
