Since, res_sendsigned(3) and the friends use MD5 functions, it is
hard to include them without having MD5 functions in libc. So,
res_sendsigned(3) is not merged into libc.
Since, res_update(3) in BIND9 is not binary compatible with our
res_update(3), res_update(3) is leaved as is, except some
necessary modifications.
The res_update(3) and the friends are not essential part of the
resolver. They are not defined in resolv.h but defined in
res_update.h separately in BIND9. Further, they are not called from
our tree. So, I hide them from our resolv.h, but leave them only
for binary backward compatibility (perhaps, no one calls them).
Since, struct __res_state_ext is not exposed in BIND9, I hide it
from our resolv.h. And, global variable _res_ext is removed. It
breaks binary backward compatibility. But, since it is not used from
outside of our libc, I think it is safe.

IPv6 transport-ready resolvers/DNS servers. Need careful configuration
when enable it. (default config is not affected).
See manpage for details.
XXX visible symbol __res_opt() is added, however, it is not supposed to be
called from outside, libc minor is not bumped.

since it has far wider impact than hostname lookups (including passwords).
Note that this has more ugly symbol hiding and binary compatability hacks
that can go away the second we bump majors.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Note: this was done by selective patching from diffs by hand, in order
to not conflict with the 4.4BSD base code. Beta9 was done the same way.
