After setting up access to a new wireless network, I've found the dhcpcd crashes regularly with messages similar to the following:

I couldn't say whether this is something specific to this network (WPA-EAP) or if it was triggered by a package upgrade around the same time. Although, dhcpcd doesn't seem to crash for me on my home network (WPA2-PSK).

Sorry, somehow filed this under release engineering - should be for project "Arch Linux".
