Make dhclient use bootpc (68) as the source port for unicast
DHCPREQUEST packets instead of allowing the protocol stack to pick
a random source port.
This fixes the behaviour where dhclient would never transition
from RENEWING to BOUND without going through REBINDING in networks
which are paranoid about DHCP spoofing, such as most mainstream
cable-broadband ISP networks.

length != BPF_WORDALIGN(length)
This meeans that it is possible for this to be true:
interface->rbuf_offset > interface->rbuf_len
Handle this case in the test for running out of packets. While
OpenBSD's solution of setting interface->rbuf_len to
BPF_WORDALIGN(length) is safe due to the size of the buffer, I think
this solution results in less hidden assumptions.
This should fix the problem of dhclient running away and consuming 100%
CPU.

capture. Zero length captures caused an infinte loop and short captures
probably caused memory corruption and a crash.
