Guix,
While testing #35563, I found that "dhcp-client" does not work on a
kernel that has CONFIG_IPV6_SIT=y.
The reason is that the system has a virtual "sit0" interface that is not
capable of ARP traffic, which dhclient does not approve of:
May 9 16:18:37 localhost dhclient: Unsupported device type 776 for "sit0"
You can `modprobe sit` on your system if you want to reproduce the
failure.
The attached patch solves it for me.
