	Note has a 1.5.0 or 1.5.1 userland. (Is there a way to be certain which?)

>Description:
	Sendmail complains:

Sep 16 16:47:30 lox sendmail[25067]: gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "lox.sandelman.ottawa.on.ca IN A", got type "SIG"
Sep 16 16:47:30 lox sendmail[25067]: gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "2.46.139.192.in-addr.arpa IN PTR", got type "SIG"
Sep 16 16:47:32 lox sendmail[25068]: gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "lox.sandelman.ottawa.on.ca IN A", got type "SIG"
Sep 16 16:47:32 lox sendmail[25068]: gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "2.46.139.192.in-addr.arpa IN PTR", got type "SIG"

	This is not a stock 1.5 sendmail.
	It was likely built against 1.4's resolver library.
	I'm reporting this bug because there are 1.4's out there.
	
>How-To-Repeat:

	I will be recompiling sendmail from source (I need -DHESIOD) and testing this.
