This rang a bell. I saw the same or something very similar a while back
on the one machine where I still install recommended packages. I only
noticed it after quite a while when I ran an `ls -l` on /var/log and saw
a rather bloated syslog.

I traced it down to runit-services using eth1 by default (or hard-coded,
don't remember) and blindly assuming ifconfig is installed. The package
didn't seem to be doing anything that was useful for me so I purged it.
Problem solved, for me, and I'm still using isc-dhcp-client.

Hope this helps,
