I think no, host(1) links ISC's resolver, and it doesn't use libc's
resolver. I suspect there is some problem in host(1) or ISC's
resolver.

4.X's host(1) is from BIND8, but it comes from BIND9 on 5.X and later.
I confirmed it on my 4.11 box with our in-tree host(1). However,
host(1) from ports has same behavior with 8.1. It is bind9-9.3.6.1.1.
% uname -r
4.11-RELEASE-p25
% /usr/bin/host koin-nkz.com.
koin-nkz.com has address 62.231.164.101
% /usr/local/bin/host koin-nkz.com.
koin-nkz.com has address 62.231.164.101
Host koin-nkz.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
