After some experimenting with dnsmasq.conf and some help from Alex S., I 
discovered that the problem was actually a nine-year-old iptables rule, 
that was apparently preventing the dhcpoffer reaching the thermostat in 
good shape.  Odd, because this old rule has caused no problems for a 
multitude of other wireless devices in the house.  In any case, I got 
the newest version of fwbuilder and used it to generate a new set of 
iptables rules, and all is well.  I guess there have been some changes 
to iptables since 2005!

Thanks to Alex and Simon.
