My daughter has new Thinkpad R51 that's had no such problems, under 
2.0beta.  I did write an apmd/resume script to restart dhclient, under 
the assumption that if you've moved you may need new addresses, but not 
due to any carrier detect bugs.

I have a 2.0G install CD I burned that I can try on that machine in a 
little while.
