Turns out rts/cts wasn't set on my clueless service provider's end.  I
tried it last night with another provider and got past the delay
problems.
But I still have the name resolution problem.  It looks like nslookup
makes a query packet, sends it, waits for a response, and never gets
one.  I can connect by hand to a remote host's domain port and send
the same packet by hand but I get no response.
There wouldn't happen to be any bugs in the resolver library, in
res_mkquery to be exact?

I've never used PPP, and I'm going out to lunch.  :-)
