For what it's worth, I have seen problem doing DHCP relay over a VPN
tunnel.
After much discussion with Cisco the solution was to upgrade to the
bleeding edge at the time (12.2.16). That however was on an 803 using
IOS. There maybe similar problems on the PIXes.
Also the setup was slightly different to yours in that, at the remote
end, net traffic was going straight out, the VPN was only for private
address space. Basically the vpn crypto match was occuring before the
DHCP broadcast request was converted to a directed broadcast. Hence it
was being pushed out to the net and never getting a reply.
Maybe some food for thought.
