I found it in the 5.3 changes..

"Removed dhclient-script(8) and dhclient.conf(5) "script" directive. Do all 
interface and route configuration via ioctl's and routing sockets. "

Unfortunately this mechanism was used for more than just routing.  And without 
a dhclient-script to 
hack I don't see how a dynamic address can be updated vi the named/key 
mechanism.
