+               A 32bit value in microseconds for a delay between
+               receiving a "DHCP Offer" and sending the "DHCP Request".
+               This fixes a problem with certain DHCP servers that don't
+               respond 100% of the time to a "DHCP request". E.g. On an
+               AT91RM9200 processor running at 180MHz, this delay needed
+               to be *at least* 15,000 usec before a Windows Server 2003
+               DHCP server would reply 100% of the time. I recommend at
+               least 50,000 usec to be safe. The alternative is to hope
+               that one of the retries will be successful but note that
+               the DHCP timeout and retry process takes a longer than
+               this delay.
