Sorry for the reply-to-self but in desparation I did an "apt-get source 
pump" and had a quick look over the source. From my (limited) 
understanding of C, looks like it doesn't understand any DHCP options 
other than those it prints, and doesn't even accept them. *sigh*.

So it looks like time for me to sit down this evening and see if I can 
modify pump to handle the options I want. If anybody has already done 
this or (even better) can tell me I'm being an idiot and don't need to 
modify pump, now would be a _wonderful_ time to speak up.
