If you do not want an address given out by the DHCP server, it should not
be in a range statement.  The "host" statement will provide the address to
the given mac, but will NOT block it from being handed out if it is
available in a pool.

Again, I ask that your questions be taken to the mailing list or that you
consider a support contract allowing you to support ISC.
