Not as far as I know, but a while ago, I discovered a buggy DNS server
that stopped answering to UDP requests and still answered to TCP. 
If there had been a way to force the resolver library to switch to
TCP, I would have done so (at least for this broken domain).
I suspect I am not the first one to think about this...


Anyway, this message is only a "security note". Is that so important?
