Thank you.
I've just solved the problem using
CC="xlc_r -D_ALL_SOURCE" ./configure --disable-pool
(I found this advice in the archive).
It works for version 2.2.STABLE5, but not for 2.3.DEVEL3.
2.2.STABLE5 is sufficient for me, however.

I also found an interesting thing. Dnsservers work only when they
could access /etc/resolv.conf, even if I set dns_nameservers.
Also "echo domain | ./dnsserver -s nameserver" returns
-s is not supported on this resolver
$fail ...
Isn't it a bug?
