That would be because although the code snippet allows members of 
that class, dynamic-bootp clients aren't allowed. Just adding "allow 
dynamic bootp clients" as well as the "allow members of ..." might be 
enough, otherwise you might try something like this (derived from the 
example you provide a link to) :

What might work is :
        class "dhcp" {
             match if exists dhcp-message-type;
         }

         subnet 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
             pool {
                 # BOOTP clients only
                 allow dynamic bootp clients;
                 deny members of "dhcp";
                 range 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.100;
             }
         }
