1)  I don't develop, so I don't have any autoconf code to offer.  Sendmail 
doesn't use autoconf either.

2)  I don't see that as unusual.  On my system, I happen to have the library 
that has the REAL routine instead of the dummy stub that only performs a return 
(which is all that the libmilter version does - when the real routine is not 
present).  Relying on libmilter's hack is the problem.

The function is a DNS-related call, so why shouldn't it be in libbind?  Why 
should it be expected to be in libmilter?
