I have resolved my problem or at least treated the symptom. The xenU kernel has CONFIG_IP_PNP=y CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y set in the default kernel configuration. I didn't do extensive tests, but it would seem that with CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y the kernel will do DHCP requests if an IP address is not supplied on the commandline irrespective other settings it passed. Disabling this and rebuilding the kernel stops the behavour that I was seeing. This allows the Linux DHCP client to do its thing which is what I was after. I have a DHCP server setup with all the network settings, DDNS, etc and the kernel DNS client doesn't pick everything up properly.
