maybe this is an ifconfig quirk, but that does not produce an IP address
on my machine here (FC1).  it actually produces nothing.  the working
version here is:

ifconfig eth0 | grep inet | cut -d : -f 2 | cut -d ' ' -f 1

however, might i suggest:

ip -4 -o addr sh eth0 | awk 'NR==1 {print $4}' | cut -d/ -f1

there's a state called INVALID ("-m state --state INVALID") that could
probably do most of the work for you here...

are you running an ICQ client on your firewall?  the above rule implies
that you are.  i can't say i recommend this at all.  if your intention
is to allow ICQ *through* the firewall--this rule belongs in FORWARD.

it's probably related to the fact that your $INET_IP variable expands to
a text string, not an IP address.

are you running your firewall script before your external interface has
an IP address?  if so--this would explain it.  your DHCP client is most
likely being spawned by your /etc/init.d/network script, which usually
kicks off pretty early in rc2.

i cannot explain the "20 minute" phenomenon you refer to.
