This resolves the following use case problem:
"I start ntpd by default from /etc/init.d
There might be no working network connection (not configured properly for
whatever reason, hardware problems, whatelse).
With busybox 1.25 ntpd seems to loop forever if now NTP servers are found,
blocking the boot process and I never get a login to solve a possible pb or
to do a first time configuration."

The ICMP RFC says that identifier and sequence number may be zero.
Having them zero for a Echo message, along with a data of zero's
as well will result in a Echo reply message with only zero's.
Some NAT implementations seem to get the checksum wrong on these
packages. Setting a checksum of 0x0 instead of 0xffff.
Through NAT:
Internet Control Message Protocol
Type: 0 (Echo (ping) reply)
Code: 0
Checksum: 0x0000 [incorrect, should be 0xffff]
Identifier (BE): 0 (0x0000)
Identifier (LE): 0 (0x0000)
Sequence number (BE): 0 (0x0000)
Sequence number (LE): 0 (0x0000)
Data (56 bytes)
Data: 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...
[Length: 56]
Without NAT:
Internet Control Message Protocol
Type: 0 (Echo (ping) reply)
Code: 0
Checksum: 0xffff [correct]
Identifier (BE): 0 (0x0000)
Identifier (LE): 0 (0x0000)
Sequence number (BE): 0 (0x0000)
Sequence number (LE): 0 (0x0000)
[Request frame: 189]
[Response time: 0.024 ms]
Data (56 bytes)
Data: 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...

And this in turn will make some hardware MAC checksum offloading
engines drop the packet.
(This was seen with a Synopsis MAC, the same one used in for instance the
stmmac Ethernet driver in the linux kernel.)
This change can be seen as a workaround for bugs in other layers.
But just setting an identifier for the Echo message packet will
avoid prodding the hornets nest.

Some users start ntpd on boot, and don't babysit it. If it dies because
DNS is not yet up and therefore NTP servers can't be found, users are
not happy.
Example behavior with a peer name which can't be resolved:
ntpd: bad address 'qwe.rty.ghj.kl'

RFC2131 paragraph 4.1 states DHCP messages broadcast by a client prior to
that client obtaining its IP address must have the source IP address
field in the header set to 0.
Request messages transmitted in renewing and rebinding state need to use
the obtained IP address as source IP address in the header; this behavior
lines up with other implementations like ISC dhcp client.

Let udhcpd retain the information about expired leases when restarting
so that the leases are reserved until they possibly become the oldest
expired lease.
This reduces the frequency of IP address changes for example when the
DHCP server and a group of clients, who do not store and request their
previously offered IP address across restarts, are collectively restarted
and the startup order of the clients are not guaranteed.

This patch allow to have multiple interface definitions, much like
Debian's ifupdown. More specifically, it removes the check for a
duplicate definition, so the impact on binary size should be fairly
minimal.
This configuration:
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.15
netmask 255.255.0.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.0.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
Will add two addresses to eth0 if ip is used. If ifconfig is used,
the standards methods will likely not stack, but the administrator may
still use the manual method. The DHCP method may work depending on the
DHCP client in use.
This is a fairly advanced feature for power users who knows what they
are doing. There are not many other network configuration systems that
allows multiple addresses on an interface.

IPv6 routes need the device argument for link-local routes, or they
