in terms of the "struct _res", i guess i would recommend importing that
as long as you're prepared to rev the shared library version number (since
the structure has changed size). but if you're not going to import a more
modern resolver library you don't actually need that.
in terms of the #define's, you should probably merge the BIND versions in
since some of them refer to new DNS elements which user mode programs may
want to make use of.
arpa/nameser.h should have the same treatment.
