the posted log was done on the server side. I've now captured new dumps 
on both sides, client and server.

NetworkManager: (loops)
Client - http://pixelbanane.de/yafu/2623929428/dhcp-client.bin
Server - http://pixelbanane.de/yafu/3122791369/dhcp-server.bin

dhcpcd: (works)
Client - http://pixelbanane.de/yafu/102767641/dhcp-client2.bin
Server - http://pixelbanane.de/yafu/316578604/dhcp-server2.bin

At least I don't think, that this is a network problem. Other dhcp 
clients do work..
The funny thing is, NetworkManager is using dhcpcd as a backend!
