I was thinking along the lines of stopping the DHCP service and calling
AddIPAddress, which should be the same as inserting the address manually in
the registry. I haven't looked into this though, so might not work.
(stopping the service would need a temporary hack, as it's not been
converted to an NT service yet, plus we don't have StartService to restart
it)

Is there a particular reason you were doing this via the DHCP
client and not just using functions provided by iphlpapi?
I couldn't find iphlpapi functions to do this. But even if
they're there,
iphlpapi will need to inform the DHCP client about the change
to static IP
address (basically telling the DHCP client to shut up and go
to sleep).
