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....
