Thanks.

I've got the problem reported against EGLIBC 2.11 originally.  Debian
back-ported Aurelien's fix into it:
http://patch-tracker.debian.org/patch/series/view/eglibc/2.11.2-10/any/submitted-resolv.conf-thread.diff

I've CCd debian-glibc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; hopefully they'll pick up this
patch as well.
Here is a back-link to it: http://www.eglibc.org/archives/patches/msg00972.html

Thanks.
