Must have been a long day for you Glenn :-)

Yes broadcast address can be derived, but it's more like :

subnet a.b.c.d netmask e.f.g.h {
   option broadcast-address i.j.k.l;
}

where i.j.k.l = a.b.c.d OR NOT(e.f.g.h)

Of course, the option subnet-mask should be the same as in the subnet 
declaration.
