If someone is volunteering :D then ripping out all of the system
resolver usage and replacing it with a libgetdns

Indeed, or one of many alternatives; unfortunately I could do without the
execute overhead. Although our platform has a lot of compute resource
available,

Or you can use
${if match{${run{/usr/local/bin/dig +short @... ...}}}{\N\.\N}}
On my VPS (obsolete FreeBSD 6) `dig` is in /usr/bin :
[root@lena ~]# exim -be

Howdy all
Today's "out of my depth" question relates to the dnsdb lookup.

I don't think I can do that without adding the specific nameserver address to
/etc/resolv.conf, unless I'm missing some configuration option
