 However, if you send me an appropriate patch I'd be willing to make it
 easy or automatic to disable the ELF shared library arrangements.
 
+The adnsresfilter utility uses `tsearch' from the C library (a la SVID
+and X/Open).  If your C library doesn't have tsearch you will find
+that configure arranges for adnsresfilter not to be built.  To rectify
+this, install a C library containing tsearch, such as the GNU C
+library.  It is best if tsearch uses an automatically-balancing tree
+algorithm, like the glibc version does.  Simple binary trees may
+perform badly.

 You will probably find that GNU Make is required.
