>Description:
/etc/rc.d/dhcpcd tries to figure out the pid file name:

    /var/run/dhcpcd-"$ifname".pid
or
    /var/run/dhcpcd.pid

depending on whether the interface is specified in dhcpcd_flags.

Unfortunately, sysinst configures dhcpcd_flags with -M (master):

    add_rc_conf("dhcpcd_flags=\"-qM %s\"\n", net_dev);

and in that case dhcpcd uses "global" pidfile, not -interface specific
pidfile.

As the result e.g.

    /etc/rc.d/dhcpcd stop

does not work.

 We just need to import dhcpcd-6-7-10 or newer and the etc/rc.d/dhcpcd 
 file from -current.
