Boot up, card not inserted, eth1 is down
Plug in card, modules autoloaded, eth1 brought up (working)
/etc/conf.d/net is set to run dhcp for eth1 (never happens!)
....
pull out card, eth1 comes down (works)
dhcpcd terminates (it never started)
modules unloaded (works)

Also:
I think if dhcpcd times out, then the interface should not come up, and the script should fail. Another option would be to leave the interface up, and dynamically reconfigure if a new ESSID is detected. (ie: use any WEP key defined for that network, then restart dhcp). I shouldn't have to pull the card and reinsert it to make this happen.

Here is what I get in syslog when I plug in my card.

Code:

And this is what I get when I pull the card:
