4.77 installed from ports ages ago works just great.

Can you define 'doesn't resolve a URL' -- you mean DNS doesn't work
for OSF/1 progs?

What's in your /etc/resov.conf? (or /compat/osf/etc/resolv.conf, iff
it exists; it shoudn't exist)

And does /compat/osf/etc/svc.conf list hosts as:
hosts=local,bind,yp
