Too complicated.  Quoting from resolvd.8:
  resolvd also monitors the routing socket for proposals learned
  by dhclient(8), dhcpleased(8), slaacd(8), or network devices which
  natively learn DNS information such as umb(4).

I think pppoe(4)--well, sppp(4) actually--needs to learn the
nameserver information and send it to the routing socket.  umb(4)
should provide a template.
