Ah, yes. The real problem here is that Hesiod needs -lresolv on Suns,
since it uses res_send(). I will fix configure.in to check for
-lresolv only if Hesiod is used.
Actually, while you're at it, you may want to include -lnsl in this
category as well. It is definitely not required on sol1 without
-lresolv. I removed them both, and haven't tested with one and not
the other. I'm still having regular server crashes. I expect (hope)
to have some details to send in today as I figure out what the problem
is. (I think there's some memory corruption. Sometimes right before
a crash some users start getting other users' zgrams.)
