isc-dhcpd and jails bound to an aliased ip

Attempting to run isc-dhcpd (using USE_SOCKETS) inside a jail
bound to an aliased ip does not appear to work. The process never seems
to recieve any broadcast traffic; however, it does see unicast traffic
as would be expected. I'm not sure how to debug this since one cannot
run tcpdump in the jail to see what traffic is getting there obviously.
It works fine if I change the jail to bind to the primary ip on the
interface. Not surprisingly, it also works fine if I run it outside of a
jail using BPF. Changing the broadcast addresses on the aliases does not
seem to change anything.
It is just that the kernel will not deliver broadcasts to jails on ip
aliases as I suspect? Yes, I now I have a "zombied" jail in the jls
listing. There are no processes with a JID of 2 running, and I'm
reluctant to reboot the machine because it's in production.
If I have to run the jail on the primary ip address, that's okay. I
would just prefer to have it running in a seperate jail and still have
ssh running on the standard port (less confusing to users).
