Yes for -current, likely not for older systems.  In -current,
something like:

$ ident /sbin/ping | fgrep dns
     $FreeBSD: src/lib/libc/net/gethostbydns.c,v 1.32 2002/03/22 21:52:28 obrien Exp $

...tells me that I need to update my `ping' binary.

These identification strings are not in the -stable resolver library.
