I checked the NetBSD CVS repository, and I think NetBSD has had BIND 8
since about 1.4.  Oddly enough, the resolver in libc, even in
NetBSD-2.0, is BIND 4.  NetBSD may include BIND 8 only for the named.

Hm.  A quick check of their CVS repository suggests that they are
still using BIND 4, and more importantly, arpa/namser.h lacks the ns_*
API.

Other operating systems I've checked which are BIND 4 or otherwise
lack the ns_* API are Irix 6.5.x and HP-UX 10.20.
