I've found that version 3.0.4-13+etch2 (debian) listens and steals traffic not 
intended for it on interfaces which it is configured to not use.

The system runs smokeping, largely on an external interface, and dhcpd on an 
internal one. When dhcpd is processing a request it steals some of the 
smokeping replies on the external interface.

I'm in the process of building a new system to replace the existing one and 
will test a more up to date version of dhcpd for this behaviour soon and 
endeavour to report back if it still exists.
