The DHCP offer sent is for the IP address of 10.51.116.2 with a subnet of 
255.255.255.0 as showing in the attached PCAP file.

The problem code is:
00054       if (addr.len != mask.len)
00055             log_fatal("subnet_number():%s:%d: Addr/mask length mismatch.",
00056                     MDL);
00057 
00058       rv.len = 0;
00059 
00060       /* Both addresses must have the same length... */
00061       if (addr.len != mask.len)
00062             return rv;
