i have the same problem.  it is a very annoying problem for me
because some of the daemons on my system complain if there is no
network interface available when they start up -- something that
tends to happen at boot time when dhcpcd is involved :-(

rough hack:

  have network daemon start up occur after dhcpcd has successfully
  completed.
