Description:
------------
dns_get_record() is not available when PHP is compiled under BSD.

/ext/standard/dns.c uses the res_nmkquery() and res_nsearch() functions present in newer versions of BIND's libresolv.

However those functions are not present on *BSD (and probably other) systems.

Please consider using the older res_mkquery(), res_search() fuctions, to maximize compatibility.

Assigning to the person who last touched this.

I ran into the same problem yesterday. So I decided to modify the source to fallback to the deprecated ns_mkquery/ns_send if the newer functions aren't available.

Patch for 5.3 and HEAD: http://manuel.mausz.at/coding/patches/php/5.3.0/php-5.3.0-dns_get_record.patch
Tested on FreeBSD but should work on other BSDs and probably on OS X too.
