I'm using 5.2.2 with background and quiet config options, which works
nicely and quietly ;)

However if I add debug (which can be very handy sometimes), I see
following when starting dhcpcd through my bootscript:
dhcpcd: version 5.2.2 starting
dhcpcd: forking to background

Is there any way to supress these?  I'd hate to need to do something
like>/dev/null 2>&1

Does the attached patch help?

Thanks
