After a grep -r eth0 /etc (and for eth1 and eth2) I noticed that VMWare was configured to bridge on eth1. The was updated since the last time I installed it ; I ran sudo vmware-config.pl again and now DHCP seems to be working again. Nevertheless, I don't understand why dhclient would fail to get the DHCPOFFER when launched by NM and not when launched from the terminal (with the same parameters !). I'm also not still not sure that VMWare was the cause of all this.
