Sorry for the delay, I unfortunately had bigger fish to fry. It's
been a bit, so here's a quick summary, just in case:

I have a machine where two other programs can resolve a domain name,
but cURL can't.

I dl'ed 7.9.8, applied the patch and did a new build. I have the
same problem. But, I did find one new piece of info.

For "security reasons" this machine doesn't have access to any DNS
servers. The only hostnames that are allowed are in /etc/hosts. I
can access the remote site fine by IP, so I'm 90% sure it's not a
problem with the setting between this machine and the remote machine.
Also, although IP works for now, it won't work as a long term
solution.
