bootpd's documentation doesn't, but it describes how to start bootpd
from inetd.
inetd(8) documents the
address:service-name
syntax to bind to a specific local address.

dhcpd's man page contains:
SYNOPSIS
dhcpd [ -p port ] [ -f ] [ -d ] [ -q ] [ -t | -T ] [ -cf
config-file ] [ -lf lease-file ] [ if0 [ ...ifN ] ]
if0 .. ifN are interface identifiers.
it will be interesting to hear if this combination works..
