Sounds like a fine plan.  I will help test as time allows.  I had a
test patch incorporating openresolv quite some time ago, and it was
straight forward, and worked well in my limited testing with dual
stack multiple DNS providers. (DHCPv6/RFC5006-RDNSS/DHCPv4/Avahi)

>From talking to Roy Marples in the past, this code has already been
imported into netbsd at some level, and I believe that he was
recommending the use of the latest code from the repository due to
some bug fixes, but it is worthy of another conversation since quite
some time has elapsed since my last query.

Good Luck.
