Debian provides a decent resolver (liblwres and lwresd) and has done
so for ages.  However, it would appear that as of July 2007 even in
'sid' (the unstable distribution) OpenSSH still linked to libresolv
(provided by glibc) by default.  I doubt that has changed.

I imaginge that Ubuntu also provides lwres, though.

production-ready.  Who are you kidding?
