Problem with dhclient & wi0 on resume.

I've got a toshiba portege 4000 with inbuilt wi0 wireless card. On
resume dhclient kicks off straight away which then breaks as the card
isn't loaded as yet. Is there anyway to specify a sleep value for
dhclient on resume from suspend ? I'm running current from today, I
should note I'm also seeing a bunch of wi0 bad_alloc messages as well
with this card. It gets quite annoying to have to restart dhclient
everytime I resume.

The dmesg info is ...

wi0: detached
ata0: resetting devices ..
done
ata1: resetting devices ..
done
wakeup from sleeping state (slept 00:00:08)
wi0: <TOSHIBA Wireless LAN Card> at port 0x100-0x13f irq 11 function 0

wi0: bad alloc 345 != 100, cur 0 nxt 0
wi0: bad alloc 298 != 100, cur 0 nxt 0

the log from /var/log/messages is...
