Hi,

a) I'm asking if there is any program in base for dns lookups that support port 
for name server.

# dig -p 5678 example.com @127.0.0.1
;; Error, only port 53 supported

# nslookup 
> set port=5678
The port command has been disabled.

host(1) never had anything similar

Is there any other tool I don't know or do I have to install drill/isc_bind 
from packages?

b) would a patch for this in src/usr.sbin/bind/ be accepted or is there a 
reason for this to be out (except for the ancient version)?

c) maybe adding libldns+drill in base would also be an option since both 
unbound/nsd are in now?

best,

Giannis
