dhclient getting address that (it seems) belongs to another NIC, all packets dropped

I have an IBM X40 with an Intel NIC, shows up as:
em0 at pci1 dev 1 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000MT Mobile (82541GI)" rev
0x00: irq 11, address 00:0a:e4:2b:0e:63
I'm in a little NAT'd subnet, controlled by dhcp. So I dhclient em0 to
set it up. This gets an IP address, perfectly fine, and sets up the
gateway, dns, etc... and I can ping the gateway, and also, the DNS
resolution is working, as a ping to an external address shows an IP
it's trying to hit, but no packets ever come back. tcpdump shows only
outgoing, never anything coming back.
dmesg shows:
duplicate IP address 10.1.10.199 sent from ethernet address
00:02:a5:26:fc:b3
which makes me thing that this IP address seems to have been also
assigned to another computer/device
Now I'm really wondering, why is this happening? booting up in a linux
livecd gets the same IP, but it works perfectly fine.
is there something I'm doing wrong? This is extremely frustrating
(having to cart around a big pccard NIC kind of takes away from the
subnotebook effect)....
