Not recommended unless you really know what you are doing, but you
can get around /some/ of the issue here simply by giving your
server a subnet of 0/0 - overlapped subnet issue solved. You
can then select fixed addresses based on option 82 I guess.
I suspect you need the same approach with the pool (i.e.
one pool).

Your problem is that the VRF is really running 2 IP networks
(rather than one), but dhcp doesn't similarly virtualise.
You thus really need 2 dhcp instances. An easy-ish way to
do this would be to use docker or lxc to put them in
different containers, listening on their own veth
interface bridged your ethernet VLAN.
