Steffen, when you asked I hadn't actually ran a dhcp server on an LDom.  We now 
have and all seems to be fine (it's a combined DNS/DHCP/NTP server).

Solaris 10u4 + recent patches, LDom 1.0.1 software.

Subject: [ldoms-discuss] update:  ?: Guest LDom as DHCP server

I never received any replies, and I got access to a T5120 and installed 
Solaris 10 update 5 build 10 in both the service and guest domains, and 
was able to run ISC DHCP server 4.1.0a1 in both IPv4 mode and in IPv6 
mode. I did not due rigorous testing, but clients received IPv4 or IPv6 
address.

This was with LDom 1.0.2 *without* the requisite patch, but was patched 
with 127580-05. I did not attach the service domain to the NIC that the 
vsw was connected to. I only had one vsw, and one vnet in the guest LDom.
