So what happens if you don't run NetworkManager or dhcdbd, but you run
'dhcdbd --no-daemon' and then these commands instead?

/usr/bin/dbus-send -system --dest=com.redhat.dhcp --type=method_call \
			   --print-reply --reply-timeout=20000 \
		           /com/redhat/dhcp/eth0 \
			   com.redhat.dhcp.up uint32:31 uint32:2

then after a bit run:

/usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=com.redhat.dhcp --type=method_call \
--print-reply --reply-timeout=20000 \
			  /com/redhat/dhcp/eth0 \
 			  com.redhat.dhcp.text.get.ip_address

What do you get?  What does dhcdbd print out?  Does the transaction
complete?  What's in /var/log/messages?
