Split DNS is a PITA.  If your nameservers are smart enough they will see 
which path a query took, and act appropriately.  Sadly, ours at work 
aren't.  Yet.

But as someone else mentioned, you've now gone beyond the realm of simple 
DHCP configuration.  DHCP was never intented to deal with policy routing 
issues (at whatever layer of the stack).
