I would bet this will be really easy to do with powershell commands in Windows 
2008.

Yanno, if I had the where-with-all, I'd write an app that would do the 
failover...I think it would sell.

That's exactly our DR steps for DHCP.

Well there is a cheap solution and it is not real time.  Write a script to go 
to each DHCP server and copy the DHCP backup folder to a central location.  
That backup is generated daily and in the event you lose a DHCP server you 
could put DHCP on another server and restore the backup files.  If you use a 
system with a different IP you will have to update the IP Helper on the 
switches that have the VLAN the server serves.

Is there an expensive or even free utility to configure a second Windows server 
as a failover DHCP server?

I've seen the appliances etc when Goggling but nothing app oriented and 
inexpensive.

Thanks in advance for any help.
