I would further suggest that where a dig(1) option isn't emulated, the
fallback error message should refer the user to drill(1).

But old fogies might still use it.  Can I suggest that something along
the lines of the the following be installed as /usr/bin/nslookup:

#!/bin/sh
echo "nslookup is no longer supported.  Please see drill(1) or host(1)" >&2
exit 1
