I just looked at the sources of src/lib/libc/net/res_init.c and it seems
that support for "timeout:" only exists in CURRENT. RELENG_4,
RELENG_5_0, RELENG_5_1 and RELENG_5_2 lack the part of res_init.c that
sets the timeout to the value configured in the `resolv.conf' file.
I'm not sure if there are any plans to merge this back to 4.X or the
release branches of 5.X though.
