Hi Thomas,
here you can find some logs required by dnsmasq devs.

http://paste.openstack.org/show/37668/

For this answer, "Maybe release a DHCP lease on an old host, and then see
if it can get a lease back again?" :
When the problem appears, the VM can't get lease back.

Should you have any further question please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thanks
Best Regards
