Comment (by phoudoin):

 Thanks for attachments, february's syslog in particular.
 There is three issues in one here it seems:
 1. the first DHCP_DISCOVER don't receive any reply, and there is several
 wifi driver messages mixed in.
 2. the DHCP client request the local-only address, which it should not!
 3. when these requests all timeout (which is expected for a local-only
 address), it doesn't fall back to DHCP_DISCOVER cycle, which it should do.

 I'll investigate the two laters issues, but for the first one I can only
 suspect ATM some issue with the state of network interface when DHCP
 messages are sent. What you could try for this first issue is replacing
 the iprowifi3945 driver with the one from february.
