Thanks, I've done a full buildworld/installworld/upgrade onto one of
my laptops and it went flawlessly.

One thing I miss from `host' command is its terseness in the output.

  $ host www.dragonflybsd.org
  www.dragonflybsd.org is an alias for leaf.dragonflybsd.org.
  leaf.dragonflybsd.org has address 216.240.41.26
  leaf.dragonflybsd.org mail is handled by 10 leaf.dragonflybsd.org.

`host -v' gives you a similar output as drill does.  Drill does have
-Q(quiet) option, but it's too shy to show me anything no matter what
it finds or not, not even the return code :)
  $ drill -Q www.dragonflybsd.org; echo $?
  0
  $ drill -Q www.dargonflybsd.org; echo $?
  0

I can write an alias or a shell function to cope with the verboseness,
but maybe we could modify the behavior of -Q to show something rather
than nothing.

Cheers.
