I have no idea what the problem is with linking against libresolv.a
under SunOS4.1.  Some people can do it, other can't.  The failure with
makedo reporting that there are "relocatable symbols" is beyond me. 
It's a mystery.  

The above problem I can handle.  Undefine RESOLVER_ENV in site.h.  In
site.mcr set RESOLVLIB to the empty string.   Clean the Andrew tree
(make Clean).  Start the build process over.  It appears from the errors
above that the libmail.a used was the one linked against libresolv.a. If
this problem reccurs, find out what module has the undefined symbols by
running nm(1).
