   PH/15 Applied Michael Deutschmann's patch to allow DNS black list processing to
         look up a TXT record in a specific list after matching in a combined
         list.
  +
  +PH/16 It seems that the options setting for the resolver (RES_DEFNAMES and
  +      RES_DNSRCH) can affect the behaviour of gethostbyname() and friends when
  +      they consult the DNS. I had assumed they would set it the way they
  +      wanted; and indeed my experiments on Linux seem to show that in some
  +      cases they do (I could influence IPv6 lookups but not IPv4 lookups).
  +      To be on the safe side, however, I have now made the interface to
  +      host_find_byname() similar to host_find_bydns(), with an argument
  +      containing the DNS resolver options. The host_find_byname() function now
  +      sets these options at its start, just as host_find_bydns() does. The smtp
  +      transport options dns_qualify_single and dns_search_parents are passed to
  +      host_find_byname() when gethostbyname=TRUE in this transport. Other uses
  +      of host_find_byname() use the default settings of RES_DEFNAMES
  +      (qualify_single) but not RES_DNSRCH (search_parents).
