Without more information, I can only guess a misconfigured /etc/hostname.<interface> file.

Here is the applicable code from the 4.3-release version of /etc/netstart:
Code:
        "dhcp")
            [ "$name" = "NONE" ] && name=
            [ "$mask" = "NONE" ] && mask=
            [ "$bcaddr" = "NONE" ] && bcaddr=
            cmd="ifconfig $if $name $mask $bcaddr $ext1 $ext2 down"
            cmd="$cmd;dhclient $if"
