sourcing the output of ipconfig brings its own set of problems, I had to deal with that in LTSP and it wasn't pleasant.
I'm planning on landing a fix for this bug in 12.04, but likely as a change on how we parse the output of it.

Longer term, we probably should move to udhcpc like LTSP did which brings better control of the dhcp client and gives you a dhcp client that actually renews its leases ;)
