tinydns+dnscache from D. Bernstein's stuff from /usr/ports/dns/djbdns  
would probably fit.

A DHCP server is significantly more complicated, as it has to keep a  
database of leases granted and deal with a varient of client options  
(even if it can't answer all of them them, it still needs to be able  
to respond to the rest of the DHCP request).  I think you can remove  
most of the options from the ISC DHCP server and get it down to  
around 400KB.  I'm not aware of anything smaller....
