This is bug https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11950
had a patch for three years and no discussion.
A code changed in meantime, a closest equivalent now is patch below

Comments?
I believe the report is invalid because res_send is for sending DNS

happens to use the same UDP/TCP ports.
