That did me retry my configuration, I started with cleaned-up version
and got error messages that I didn't get yesterday:

| /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf line 183: unknown option pxelinux.reboottimeout
|     option pxelinux.reboottimeout 32
|                     ^
| dfree confpars.c(648): free on null pointer.

With that information I knew what I was doing wrong.

Now I have also a maintaince friendly config.
