Sorry this took so long.  I think you should be able to pull the
following changesets from

    ipconfig: omit zero-length DHCP vendor_class_identifier
    
    If ipconfig is executed with -i "", omit the vendor class
    identifier from the DHCP discover/request rather than
    sending it empty.  This patch paves the way for more
    flexibility in the DHCP packet, particularly hostname
    request.

    ipconfig: send requested hostname in DHCP discover/request
    
    If a hostname is requested, for example -d ::::foo::dhcp,
    then include the hostname in the DHCP discover/request.
