I do this all in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf - custom prepended domains for
search, as well as superseding some rather useless caching resolvers in
favor of another pair.  Works regardless of whether I use the interfaces
file, resolvconf, NetworkManager, etc., which all use dhclient in the
end.  Hope that helps!
