On my last job we did quite an extensive set of testing with pump and 
dhclient, and pump fails a LOT of the time, in various different network 
situations. If memory serves correctly, pppoe, which is popular with some of 
the ISPs is one that will fail on pump in a lot of situations.

I only use dhclient, FWIW. Debian won't let you have both installed, and will 
remove the other one in the process of installing the new one. Be careful, 
since you can be left without a working DHCP client if you don't have the deb 
package on your local drive or CD. Because of that I always use dhclient.
