Doh!  I keep forgetting the Changelog entry:

2001-20-06  Grant Edwards  <grante@visi.com>

        * src/lib/dhcp_prot.c (alarm_function): Move changing
        of state variable to before the re-enabling of the
        alarm to prevent infinite nesting of calls to
        alarm_function when expiry==t1==t2. (new_lease): Check
        return status of get_bootp_option() and provide default
        values for expiry/T1/T2 if they are not provided by the
        server.
