+ CONFIG_BOOTP_DHCP_REQUEST_DELAY

+ 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.
