I wasn't CC'd on this and only accidentally noticed it, since it just 
happened to be the first email in this list folder this morning. It's 
good to CC people based on ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl's output.

I think that last line should be unconditional; the previous statement 
unconditionally sets autoload to no, so we want to unconditionally 
restore the previous value of autoload, irrespective of whether it was 
set or not.

I'd expect:

setenv autoload_save $autoload
setenv autoload no
dhcp
setenv autoload $autoload_save
setenv autoload_save

(or a cmdline option to "dhcp" to force it to only acquire an IP address 
would be nice too).
