Hello.
There's no ISC dhcp in OI /dev a9. But it uses old illumos-gate and 
provides working Sun DHCP.
Perhaps, breakage is related to transition from Studio to GCC compiler.
AFAIK, SFE is supported, i.e., it's updated, but I think that 
http://pkg.openindiana.org/sfe/ repository
is unsupported since Milan resignation.
