In reality probably not.

I presume it was the threadsafe resolver routines.

Yes (I think), see below.

There aren't any additional header files/libraries but as I said in the 
original message:
  It tests the version of the named binary when what you probably actually
  care about is the version of the resolver library but its much easier to get
  the BIND version from that and I'll assume that the two will be more or less
  in sync.

If someone can find a counter example we can make the test more complex but 
until then ...
