dhclient gives a lot of messages at start up

When I start wicd and it tries to get an IP address through dhclient, dhclient spits out a lot of messages and appears to try to start multiple times.

The output of /var/log/everything.log looks like this:

It looks like the messages are really jumbled too. Does anyone know what's going on or how to stop dhclient from erroring?

Thanks!
