A very minor change, changing sleep 1 to sleep 2 after DHCP call.
Even with the simplest manual configuration, I found that on 50%
of reboots, the madwifi network interface wasn't ready and I would
see the following boot messages:

    Hostname set to "localhost"
    Domain not set
    Starting messagebus    [OK]
    Starting Network Interface Plugging Daemon: eth0
    Starting lard   [OK]
    Starting network:
    * starting lo:   [OK]
    * starting ath0: DHCP failed   [OK]
    * starting eth0: DHCP failed   [OK]
    * setting default route: SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
    failed to set gateway   [Failed]

After tracing the boot sequence through, I think that there is a
timing problem where dhcpcd returns success before the child daemon
has actually managed to configure the ath0 interface.

After changing from sleep 1 to sleep 2, I've just been able to boot
10 times in a row and get a correctly configured ath0 interface.
Maybe there's a better way involving "dhcpcd -t" or something
but this appears to work for me at the moment. YMMV
