Then this bit of code in the configure script should fail, but it
apparently succeeds; that's why HAVE_LIBRESOLV is defined.

  LIBS="$LIBS -lresolv"
  AC_MSG_CHECKING(for res_init with -lresolv)
  AC_TRY_LINK([#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/nameser.h>
#include <resolv.h> ],
    [res_init();],
    have_res_init=yes, have_res_init=no)
