    ...  I'm aware of "netname" in the PCIP package which does only A
    record lookups and an enhanced netname utility in the MD-DOS/IP 
    package (WiscWare) which can lookup up other types.  Any others?

The HOST command in DOS PC/TCP can issue any kind of IP-related DNS query,
and since v2.05 supports Hesiod queries as well.
