The problem with <arpa/nameser.h> is that it is stuck in the past.  It 
was never updated for DNSSECbis (which is incompatible with the original 
DNSSEC).  And there are declarations in it which do not have 
implementations in glibc.

I was leaning towards deprecating the header and eventually removing it. 
  What kind of use do you see for it?

Thanks,
Florian
