Check for dn_skipname() when checking res_search() to resolve µClibc compile failures.
This works by disabling the DNS alias detection feature, which is however deprecated anyways. svn path=/branches/BRANCH_6-3/; revision=5106

+# FIXES:
+* The configure script will additionally check for 'dn_skipname', to fix build
+ failures with µClibc. The new check still recognizes the resolver libraries on
+ Ubuntu 7.04, openSUSE 10.2, Solaris 8, NetBSD 3.0 and FreeBSD 6.2.
+ Fixes Gentoo bug #134187.
+ NOTE: this is a bit of a hack, since we twist the HAVE_RES_SEARCH result, but
+ res_search() and dn_skipname() are only used together and scheduled for
+ removal in future versions, so this is probably fine.
