This command is not useful. I guess it worked only by accident. The
dhcpcd uses several global variables which are not cleaned up or
properly re-initialized. The dhcpcd command is not supposed to return to
the caller. A running dhcpcd client could be controlled via a special
socket, but his is not properly implemented/ported to RTEMS.
