Network Bug in Gnome

I found a critical bug in the Gnome DE with networkmangement in Arch Linux.

How to reproduce it:

Create a static Setting for a Network card with an IP-Address in Use by an Server (for me it was a Samba Server).
Disable this statical Address and enable DHCP Networking.

Connect a Networkkable to Network Card.

For the first Second the Card takes the static address which was deaktivated before.
So the Samba Server was not Reachable from other Netwok Clients anymore.

After some time the dhcp client program seems to change to the correct Address and the problem is gone.

Could anybode recheck this?

Thanks, merlink
