I've been looking into this but I don't see anywhere where a link-level private address

"libbsd" must be providing this as a fall-back address.  It happens 
infrequently.

Does the libbsd DHCP client have fall back to provide a private address, e.g. 
"169.254.208.184"?

I did some searching in "libbsd" but didn't find it.

The DHCP client of libbsd is dhcpcd. It provides a IPv4 link-local address if no DHCP offer is received after a timeout. This is enabled by default. You can disable it via the "noipv4ll" configuration option.
