Old Tired Question: 'Not configured to listen on any interfaces'

Hello!
I've seen a lot of questions about 'not configured to listen on any
interfaces' but I'm still not clear on something. Is it a hard
requirement that dhcpd.conf contain a subnet that corresponds to the
subnet of the interface that's meant to be serving dhcpd?
We have this:
/usr/bin/dhcpd -cf /var/etc/dhcpd.conf -lf /var/dhcpd.leases -f eth0
and of course it says:
Not configured to listen on any interfaces!
because we don't have an eth0 subnet in the config. Well, I don't
want to serve dhcp on eth0's subnet. What I did as a workaround was
created a /32 subnet declaration for the ip address on eth0 so dhcpd
would run. But is there not a better way?
