Just wanted to post this to the list incase anyone else comes across
this problem.

in updating from dhcp-3.0.1rc9 to dhcp-3.0.1rc11 we encountered the error:

old name service update routine line 11: illegal expression relating
different types
     if (defined (ddns-fwd-name) and ddns-fwd-name !=
                                                   ^
can't parse standard ddns updater!

the solution is to change the ddns-update-style from "ad-hoc" (or
whatever) to "none" in the dhcpd.conf (and dhcpd.conf.new) files.

ddns-update-style none;
ddns-updates off;

we don't use ddns but apprently you need to set the style anyway. those
kooky ISC kids.

hope this helps someone else in the world...a google search on this
error produced zero results.
