Dnsmasq treats all nameservers as equivalent (except insofar as it is
instructed to use particular nameservers to resolve names in particular
domains).

The C library resolver, on the other hand, tries one nameserver at a
time in the order that their addresses are listed in resolv.conf.

If you must try the nameservers in a particular order then don't use
dnsmasq on the local machine.

If you are using NetworkManager which by default starts a slave dnsmasq
instance to serve as a local forwarding nameserver then with root
privileges edit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf to comment out
the line `dns=dnsmasq` (by putting a `#` at the beginning of the line)
and then restart the machine.

** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
