Nope, I don't think so.

But there are alternative client libraries, aka 'stub resolver' like
'ares':
ftp://athena-dist.mit.edu/pub/ATHENA/ares/ which includes two
executables, 'adig' and 'ahost' as examples how to write interfaces and
'adns':
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/adns/ which includes three
executables 'adnslogres', 'adnsresfilter', 'adnshost' .

Both are building OOTB and provide a similar interface as libresolv.

I have a version of 'ares' up at my site:
http://timtowtdi.topcities.com/cygwin/ares/

I have also a modified standalone libresolv version taken from ZMailer
which was taken from bind-4.9.4-REL/res/ but this needs some sanitizing.

Ciao,
