That branch is up to 3.0.7 now, you might want to upgrade.

I haven't tried this, but I think it would work:

        class "bootp" {
            match if not exists dhcp-message-type;
        }

        subnet 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
            pool {
                allow members of "bootp";
                range 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.100;
            }
        }
