That is the effect of the move to a new packages feeds repository two years ago.

Nobody has been willing to maintain the the isc-dhcp package, so it has been 
left at the "oldpackages" repo.
http://git.openwrt.org/?p=packages.git;a=summary
http://git.openwrt.org/?p=packages.git;a=blob;f=net/isc-dhcp/Makefile;hb=HEAD

"oldpackages" have not been compiled for CC15.05 (or for trunk snapshots), 
but you can enable the feed in your own build environment.

If you want the package imported to the current packages feed at Github, you 
could assume its maintainership and create a pull request at Github.
