I've been fighting with this bug for the last few days once I finally realized that it was the cause of my system backups not happening. My dhcp server is keyed based on hostname, and in Hardy it completely seems to be ignoring the send host-name string in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf. This means it comes up with a dynamic IP address instead of it's slotted one, and the backup server can't contact my laptop.
