Comment 20 for bug 1327412

It seems the fix is only partial ;

From RFC2131 (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) for a client we have:

Field DHCPDISCOVER DHCPREQUEST DHCPDECLINE,
                      DHCPINFORM DHCPRELEASE
----- ------------ ----------- -----------
'yiaddr' 0 0 0

but the mentioned patch does not include
- bootp.yiaddr = dev->ip_addr;
+ bootp.yiaddr = INADDR_ANY;
The patch only adds the flags... Considering it is the client DHCP request the yiaddr should be 0 (INADDR_ANY)
