	Yes,  dn_skipname() is redefined at BIND-4.9.4-REL
	<resolv.h>, and it does require that you link with
	the static libresolv.a  -- however your system libc
	does contain a bit older resolver in it, and thus
	the autoconfiguration determines that no  -lresolv
	is needed...

	The  --with-bundled-libresolv   is in fact about
	the same as  bind-4.9.4-patch1  resolver.
	(I had to add about same fixes due to AIX 3.2.5 ...)
