Applied.

I guess you mean that the following two tests don't trigger linking
against libresolv

    AC_SEARCH_LIBS(gethostbyname, resolv)
    AC_SEARCH_LIBS(res_search, resolv)

This would mean that both gethostbyname and res_search are provided by
libc, but some other functions are not. For some reason I thought
res_init could be a #define, so I picked res_search.

We could test for dn_expand or res_init, but I don't know what your libc
provides.
