An alternative, if you have some control over the DHCP server, might be
to enforce a mapping of MAC addresses to IPs.  You can pretty much set
you guest MAC addresses to whatever you want so long as they don't
conflict with anything else. In libvirt land you do that with something like

     <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='00:16:36:1e:dd:f3'/>
      <source bridge='br0'/>
    </interface>
