Comment (by axeld):

 The `up` state has nothing to do with the interface having link or not. If
 the interface actually has a link, `ifconfig` would mention that. IOW it
 appears that DHCP is issued even though there is no link. Since it took a
 minute or so, it might be lease time related; maybe the timeout is not
 reset or incorrectly used.
