Section 6 says:

   Here we specify changes to the behavior of DHCPv4 clients and
   servers.  We also specify changes to the wording in RFC 2131 and RFC
   2132.  DHCPv4 clients, servers, and relay agents that conform to this
   specification must implement RFC 2131 and RFC 2132 with the wording
   changes specified in sections 6.3 and 6.4.

It should say:

   Here we specify changes to the behavior of DHCPv4 clients and
   servers.  We also specify changes to the wording in RFC 2131 and RFC
   2132.  DHCPv4 clients, servers, and relay agents that conform to this
   specification must implement RFC 2131 and RFC 2132 with the wording
   changes specified in sections 6.4 and 6.5.

Notes:

Incorrect references to sections of this document.

-- Verifier note --
The original text should indeed refer to sections 6.4 and 6.5 but it can be expected that the reader will auto-correct and as the error does not prevent interoperation, this errata is classified as "held for document update".
