My copy (meaning I've edited it) of /etc/rc.firewall says:

        # allow DHCP stuff
        ${fwcmd} add pass udp from any 67 to any 68 in via ${nic}
        ${fwcmd} add pass udp from any 68 to any 67 out via ${nic}

where ${nic} is fxp0.

The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its
capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
