Could have been, but those are updated at build time, so that's not
the issue. It could also have been a need for relibtoolizing, but
that's not the case either. Also please note it would be nice to
modify configure.ac the same way you modify configure, so that this
modification isn't lost when relibtoolizing (which mostly boils down
to running “autoreconf -vfi”).

The problem actually comes from the following:
| AC_SEARCH_LIBS(res_mkquery, resolv)

It looks like it turns out to “none required” on the architectures
with the FTBFS, so there's a missing -lresolv (explaining while some
related symbols are unresolved -- oh the irony). I'd have to set up an
i386 chroot to compare config.log and others, and maybe figure out a
fix. I guess a quick workaround would be adding -lresolv manually to
some linking command lines.
