Not as writ -- the moment that you're using __foo variables from libc,
you're becoming somewhat unportable. So this needs to abstracted out to
"resolver initialisation stuff" with one implementation for NetBSD and
one for everything else.

If you take a look in the OS/ subdir (top-level, sibling to src/),
you'll see how this is generally handled.
