DHCP forwarding is done by DHCP proxy (see the RFC). I imagine WINS would be done via browse master (which you could get by running the most recent SAMBA code on FreeBSD), so it would not be forwarding, technically. What other UDP packets are you trying to forward? Most likely whatever they are, they should be seperaly proxied and/or agregated by a proxy service (eg: the WINS browse master example, above).
