for what it's worth, `nslookup` can also set the port for a query:

dig @localhost -p 8600 mysql.service.consul 
nslookup -po=8600 mysql.service.consul localhost

... but both "nslookup" and "dig" come from package "dnsutils", which
brings in six other packages and 512kB of diskspace for amd64 packages.
Would any but the smallest of embedded systems be burdened?
