Bug Description
Suppose that:
1. you have a "search" line in your /etc/resolv.conf file;
2. it has two domains in it; and
3. the first of the two domains does DNSSEC, including returning NSEC records for nonexisting hosts.
In this situation, if you use the "host" command to look up a host name in the second domain, then "host" will stop searching after it gets back the NSEC record from the first domain, rather than moving on to the second domain and searching there, as it should.
