I've seen this once; but the thing is, that file is written by
*dhclient* itself, not by NM.  So if dhclient is writing out a bad
leasefile, that's dhclient's bug not NM's.  One other possibility is
that dhclient could be mishandling the TERM that NM sends, or that it's
not writing out the file fast enough (NM gives it ~2 seconds before
killing the process with SIGKILL).
