Big in network-functions - empty resolv.conf created via DHCP

There seems to be a bug in the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions
script. The usage of networking setup that has interface configured to use
DHCP and get the DNS information from the server results in a blank
resolv.conf file being created.

I have tried the setup with two different machines, on two different
networks, that have two different DHCP servers. One is a MS DHCP server, and
the other is a Fedora based dhcpd server. Both yield a blank filed when
updated to the latset development build.

Replacement of an older (development updates before last week)
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions script over the latest
(current with development updates as of yesterday) network-functions script
allows the resolv.conf to be generated correctly again.

Usage of kompare with the two files, shows that the resolv.conf related code
was thoroughly edited with a new generation scheme.
