Hi,

I have sold the uclibc->awk problem with replacing it with mawk, it is a
very small implementation, and it works fine. But again, as I have traced,
the problem is with the res_query() function.

Without this function i cant use freeswan's OE support, but anything else
works fine, so static VPNs are working.

Best regards,
