This problem seems to be that I made a change to configure without
realizing that I should have bumped ntp_configure_cache_version .

The work-around is to remove any top-level config*cache* files and
re-run configure.

This change seems to work fine with autoconf 2.65, but not with autoconf
2.61

The "old" way checks for both res_init and __res_init; we only need the
latter if the former is not present.

We'll soon be checking in this fix:

 AC_CHECK_FUNCS([res_init], , [AC_CHECK_FUNCS([__res_init])])
